I wanted to build an awesome place for people to discuss module specific issues, but I don't have any more time for this, and there are much better places to discuss Perl-related issues. I'd recommend asking your question on Stack Overflow or on Perl Monks.
If you are looking for a Perl tutorial or Perl-related news, I hope these links will serve you well.

Errors with WindowsXP and ActivePerl 5.8.8.819
After MUCH hassling with failed cpan installs, I ended up either downloading modules and manually copying their lib contents or trying to install them using the graphical ActivePerl PPM. I finally have reached a state where I can actually execute perl *some_myspace_script*! Woohoo!

However, I am noticing the following errors on execution of almost all of the supplied scripts, and am wondering if they are criticial/nuisance/not worth worrying about:

Unrecognized LWP::UserAgent options: stack_depth at C:/Perl/lib/WWW/Myspace.pm line 700
Day too big - 2932896 > 24855
Sec too big - 2932896 > 11647
Day too big - 2932896 > 24855
Sec too big - 2932896 > 11647

I am guessing something has recently changed with dates which is causing those day/sec messages. I am unsure of anything about the whole stack_depth thing.

Any suggestions?

I've reinstalled WWW::Mechanize (which is the construct referred to on line 700) using:

cpan -i WWW::Mechanize

and things seem to be working better. The day/sec too big errors still persist, but I will try to find a cause for those.

The "too big" messages are just warnings caused by one of the modules on which WWW::Myspace depends. They're harmless, but to make them go away see the "date.patch" file included at the root level of the WWW::Myspace distribution for a fix.

This info will be included in the KNOWN ISSUES section in the next release (0.61), which also requires WWW::Mechanize 1.20, which should fix the "stack_depth" error.
