You can elevate your permissions using sudo / su but I won't promise that that's safe solution. Best of luck!

Regarding CPAN there are few places that have clear explanation as this site. I want to web scrape but it's damn hard because nobody explains which specific problem i have.

Was one installed via Fink or Macports or something? Richard, how did you end up with two versions of Perl? Was one installed via Fink or Macports or something?

I figured it out. I have two different versions of perl installed. I had to do the CPAN install for both vesions of perl. All is good, now! Never mind! I figured it out.

I still get the error: "Can't locate SOAP/Lite.pm in @INC (...)" So, EXACTLY WERE does CPAN put the perl modules it installs?

I still get the error: “Can’t locate SOAP/Lite.pm in @INC (…)”

It was very helpful, and enabled me to just installed seven PERL mods, as well as the Expat C library from Sourceforge. Like Christian though, I only had to use "sudo cpan ModuleName" at the Terminal prompt to install most of them. I think there was only one where I had to prefix the command with "Bundle::". This is on a 27" iMac running Snow Leopard 10.6.4. I also installed them on a ten-year-old G4 mini-tower running Tiger. YMMV Thanks again! Thanks for your tutorial.

That was just unclear to me from the post. Right, but if I wanted to install the DateTime module, I would use ‘install DateTime’ and not ‘install Module::DateTime’.
