Looks like you have network problems! Maybe a firewall? It's
quite a strange firewall if it won't let you access web pages from that
machine.

Or a proxy? Try setting up this system environment variable and
reconnect to the reps (make sure you either set it in the same cmd or
open a new cmd AFTER setting it in windows).

Variable Value
http_proxy http://<username>:<password>@<proxy>

Obviously substitute your information in. There's another solution
floating around where you set each piece of information individually
(http_proxy, http_user and http_pass) but it didn't seem to work for me.

It's worth getting ppm to work, manually installing modules is a pain...

BTW checksetup.pl isn't up to date with Activestate's ppm, ie why repo
up isn't working. You might find it easier to run ppm's GUI, do this by
just entering ppm at cmd. Make the theory58S rep first in the list but
also make sure you keep the Activestate rep - it is required for most
things AFAIK.

The PPM program has changed in ActivePerl-5.8.8.820.
Therfore it's little different than described in the documents:

Open command promt window and set your http proxy(if needed):
set HTTP_proxy=http://proxy:port/

Then type "ppm" in the same command promt. You will get now the
graphical Perl Package Manager.

In the menu: Edit, Preferences, then tab Repositories you should see
theory58S http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppms
as one of the Repositories. Order doesn't matter.
Press then ok and select "View all packets" Button
With the search function you will find the needed packets and it
shows all available versions from the various repositories.
Mark the correct ones for installation and install them.
That's all...

Max,

It is not so strange if you are working on a company network with a ISA
server. Web access is possible through a webbrowser, but is not when
using a COMMAND-box. Stuff like using proxy and authentication will be
nessesary.

I don't think it's necessary to post your problem twice if you didn't
say anything about the suggestions to solve your problem you already
got.

I'd like to quote:
