How to install NET::LDAP modules in windows 2003?

**numberwhun** · Jan 17 '11, 06:24 PM

When you ask for help and you are using Windows version of Perl, you need to remember to specify which version of Perl you are using. The two possibilities are Active State and Strawberry Perl (which is my choice when using Perl on Windows).

Here is a link that shows you how to install using the Active State version. Don't forget that Google gives quite a few results for this search topic.

Always provide whatever information you can when asking a question. Too much info is better than not enough.

Jeff

Hi,

I am running this in DOS Prompt:

Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]
(C) Copyright 1985-2001 Microsoft Corp.

C:\Documents and Settings\sanlak >ppm
PPM interactive shell (2.1.5) - type 'help' for available commands.

PPM> install Perl-LDAP
Install package 'Perl-LDAP?' (y/N): y
Installing package 'Perl-LDAP'...
Error installing package 'Perl-LDAP': Could not locate a PPD file for package Perl-LDAP

I don't know, why i am receiving this error. i have installed Perl in E drive.

Make sure that you have the correct name for the module. I don't use PPM, so I would not know where to look for the package names.

It does sound though, like you do not have the right name for the package.

Hi,
Thanks for your reply.

Code:

PPM>install Perl::LDAP

I think so, its get installed.

when i am using NET::LDAP in my code, i am facing the INTERNAL SERVER ERROR. When i am seeing the error log,
the error is, can't locate Net/LDAP.pm in @INC
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted. Thanks

I don't think that it installed correctly if it is saying that it cannot find the .pm file. You may want to remove it and try again.

Hi,
I uninstalled Perl-ldap-0.4001 and Convert-ASN1-0.22. Again, i installed Convert-ASN1-0.22. The installation is successful by checking with this code

Code:

perl -e "use Convert::ASN1

.

When i am trying to install Perl-LDAP-0.4001 ?
Its showing me the error:

Code:

[B]ERROR: perl: Version 5.006001 is installed, but we need version >= 5.008 at inc/
Module/Install/Makefile.pm line 211, <STDIN> line 3.[/B]

My Perl Version is ActivePerl-5_6_1_631-MSWin32-x86.msi and my Apache Verison is apache_1.3.22-win32-x86.msi. What can i do ? what changes i should make to complete my installation as successful.

You need to upgrade your version of Perl. The current release of ActivePerl from ActiveState is 5.12, which corresponds to the current version of Perl. I would suggest you update your version to at least the version mentioned in the error, if not newer.

hi,

I installed successfully LDAP.
when i am running my program, why i am getting the output

Code:

Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600] (C) Copyright 1985-2001 Microsoft Corp. C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>cd.. C:\Documents and Settings>cd.. C:\>cd perl C:\Perl>cd bin C:\Perl\bin>perl test.cgi Content-type: text/html <body bgcolor="#ffcccc">hi C:\Perl\bin>

I want the output only "hi"

We cannot tell you what is wrong if you do not show us your code.

**santhanalakshmi** · Feb 4 '11, 05:27 AM

hi,
Please check my code

Code:

#!c:/perl/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use CGI qw(:all);    #use for all code


print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
print "<body bgcolor=\"#ffcccc\">";
print "hi";

Ok, it printed exactly what you told it to print. You are trying to do CGI, but you are going about it incorrectly. You are missing the basic structures of an HTML page. I highly suggest that you go through a tuturial on Perl/CGI before continuing. Once you look at that, you may see the error of your ways.

hi,

what is the main use of

Code:

 use CGI qw(:all)

**numberwhun** · Feb 5 '11, 03:01 PM

Ok, you need to seriously do some searching and reading on the CGI module. That is a call to the CGI.pm module. Here is a good tutorial and here is the documentation page for the CGI module. You need to read both as they should answer your questions.

I hope that once you go through those you will then understand why your script is not working as expected and you will then see what is missing.

Jeff
