Could it be that the hardrive went to sleep and the browser or server is timing out before the HDD comes back up to speed? Just a thought. Good Luck

Well it looks like it's going to be more complicated then dropping the ppm files in the bin dir.The PPM configuration (actually it's all in a .bat file) apparently wants to read the windows registry to find another module (TieRegistry.pm) that it uses to compile the ppd's. After coping the ppm files and running the cmd: ppm install Unix.ppd E:\Server\UniServer3_2a\diskw\usr\bin>ppm install Unix.ppd Can't locate Win32/TieRegistry.pm in @INC (@INC contains: E:/Server/UniServer3_2 a/diskw/usr/lib .) at ppm.bat line 15. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at ppm.bat line 15. I think my solution is to do a full Perl install outside of uniform server and point my cgi scripts to use it.

I need to add several packages to the Perl lib. on my XP server. I found what I needed from http://ppm.activestate.com/PPMPackages/zip...s-only/Windows/ but don't know how install into uniserver. There's not a ppm file to load up the modules. ex: ppm install Unix.ppd Actually, I wouldn't mind installing the full Perl version into uniserver if possible, but will settle for adding PPMPackages as they are needed.
