Make fixdeps not working?

If I try and make fixdeps I get errors like this:

-cut-
/usr/bin/perl ./tools/testdeps -fix mysql
Checking for Digest::MD5…Digest::MD5 not installed.Installing with
CPAN…LWP not available

Please, install Net::FTP as soon as possible. CPAN.pm installs it for you
if you just type
install Bundle::libnet

etc…

What is wrong? Di I make a mistake?:slight_smile:

I had the same error due to ACLs (I believe) on our network interfering
with ftp. When I tried it from a different (non-production) subnet,
things worked out. The way I got around it in the past was to manually
install the modules. I think that’s your best bet. Incidentally… even
if you get CPAN working for this, good luck with Apache::Cookie. It just
plain 'ol doesn’t work.On Fri, 7 Jun 2002, Randy Millis wrote:

Install libnet manually and during the setup phase, make sure to say yes if
perl asks if you want to update your configuration, and ensure libnet is set
to always use passive FTP. Active FTP rarely works through firewalls; once
you have libnet set to use passive FTP, a lot of problems go away. There are
ways of manually editing config files to force passive FTP but it’s often
simpler to reconfigure libnet during the installation/upgrade process.
