perl: April 2008 Archives

Okay, so the idea is pretty simple: to have a means to install CPAN modules via your web browser. A few attempts later and I have created CPAN::Web - a little CGI based web application that uses CPANPLUS to do the main work.

Hopefully it should just work once you extract the files. I know it probably won't and people will have issues with it, so please, please do make suggestions, check out the source and mess about with and generally help make it better. Who knows, maybe it will be a Good Thing some day?

I got this after upgrading my MovableType installation every time I tried to add/edit a template or entry. The problem was with the domain I was using not being the same as the one set in mt/mt-config.cgi

For example, in mt/mt-config.cgi I had

CGIPath                 http://robbiebow.co.uk/mt/

But I was accessing the control panel at

http://www.robbiebow.co.uk/mt/

Changing one to be the same as the other and the problem was solved.
