Cannot make

Hi All, I have installed perl5.8 and I can see the version when I type "perl -v". After instalation of perl I also did "perl Makefile.PL" on the unix prompt. But after that I am not able to run either make or make test or make install command on the unix prompt. Can you please let me know what can be the problem. Is there in file called "make" which I can download if so is there any changes to be made to the content of the make file? Thanks, Manka

Re: Cannot make

"not able to run either make or make test" doesn't give much to go on. Is there an error message? Presuming you are missing the "make" utility you can download and install it from your operating sy +stem vendor. Or you can use the pmake tool distributed with this module. perl Makefile.PL perl pmake perl pmake test perl pmake install
