SOAP::Lite install problem

[Dan Pelton]

I am trying to install SOAP::Lite on a Sun box.
I tried installing the module using the following command and got the
error "don't know what it is". I can get it directly from the authors
web site, but I was wondering what my problem is? The author states that
it has been testes under Perl 5.7.1. Does SOAP::Lite version 0.55 work
under Perl 5.8?

perl -MCPAN -e shell
cpan> install SOAP::Lite
Fetching with LWP:
ftp://ftp.perl.org/pub/CPAN/modules/03modlist.data.gz
Going to read /root/.cpan/sources/modules/03modlist.data.gz
Going to write /root/.cpan/Metadata
Warning: Cannot install SOAP::Lite, don't know what it is.

Thanks,
Dan

Yes. I have it working for perl5.8.2. (And with only a slight change
with mod_perl1.99...).

FYI, I am seeing the same thing. SOAP::Lite seems to have vanished from
the CPAN indices between last Friday and the end of the weekend. Who is
in charge of PAUSE data-management?

p.s. - Yes, SOAP::Lite works fine under Perl 5.8.x assuming you can make
heads or tails out of the documentation.

It's now reappeared in CPAN.

Try http://soaplite.com/resources.html - there's a number of nice
articles and tutorials there that should get one started.
