First, I am going to assume that you are on a *nix system such as Linux. That said, type "which nmake". If it returns nothing, then the path to the program isn't in your search path, or it isn't even installed on your system. So, one other thing you can do to ensure that the program isn't installed on your system is to run the following command:

find / -name "nmake" -print 2>/dev/null

If it is on your system, that should find it. If not, you will need to obtain the source for nmake on the internet and install it on your system, then proceed with your module installation.

Regards,

Jeff

Are you running activestate perl on windows? You can use the PPM application to install modules. If not, I believe you have to download and install nmake.exe on your PC. Google for "perl nmake" and you should find some information.
