Try Cache::FastMmap. I think you have a missing 'm'.

The urllist can be edited. E.g. with 'o conf urllist push
ftp://myurl/'

The error means just what it says - the URL to the CPAN mirror in your
CPAN config file is not valid. From what it says its "Fetching with
LWP", it looks like the URL is empty, but it must be a absolute URL,
including the scheme and host name.

Use "o conf urllist" in the CPAN shell to display a list of the CPAN
mirrors you've configured, and the command suggested in the error
message to add one to the list.
