Can't locate Term/ANSIColor.pm
Pradeep
I have installed the perl 5.8.8(ActivePerl-5.8.8.824-MSWin32-
x86-287188.msi from http://downloads.activestate.com/ActivePerl/Windows/5.8/)
and perl 5.8.9 also. I am getting the following error when my script
runs.
c:\perl\bin;c:\perl\lib;c:\perl\site\lib is already appended to PATH
env variable.
[exec] Can't locate Term/ANSIColor.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /
usr/lib/perl
5/5.8/cygwin /usr/lib/perl5/5.8 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8/cygwin /
usr/lib/per
l5/site_perl/5.8 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8 /usr/lib/perl5/

win /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8 .)
at -e line
2.
[exec] BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at -e line 2.
Can anybody help me in this regard?
Thanks

The path should contain both c:\perl\bin and c:\perl\site\bin.
No point in adding c:\perl\lib and c:\perl\site\lib.

This is cygwin perl, not ActivePerl. You probably need to *prepend*
(instead of *append*) c:\perl\bin and c:\perl\site\bin to the path.
That way, ActivePerl will be found before Cygwin perl.

Iam new to Perl.Thanks Rob for your help. could you please clarify
what do u mean by prepend? Do you mean the @INC array needs to be
updated with perl path first and then cygwin perl path? If so could
you please let me how can I update the @INC array non progrmatically?

That does not require that we read Perl's documentation to you...
You should read up on a subject first to see if you can do it yourself.
You don't want to have to be running to Usenet every time a problem
comes up, you want to learn how to be independant enough to solve
problems without depending on others.

All of Perl's variables are documented in:
perldoc perlvar
so when you have a question about a Perl variable, you should
look up that variable there.

If you are having trouble with a module, then you should search
the Frequently Asked Questions to see if there are any about modules:
perldoc -q module
perlfaq8 mentions multiple ways of updating the @INC array.
If you plan to run perl, then you should read
perldoc perlrun
(take particular note of PERL5LIB)

When you "append" you add something at the end.
When you "prepend" you add something at the beginning.
I mean you should add c:\perl\bin and c:\perl\site\bin to the
*beginning* of the path, not the end - eg:
set PATH=c:\perl\bin;c:\perl\site\bin;%PATH%

I tried hard to fix this issue.. But failed to resolve.I also followed
what Tad McClellan mentioned above. But could not get a clue.
