Can some1 please tell me where I can point my host (netfirms) to download Storable.pm from. I already searched Cpan and found loads of results so any help would be appreciated !

They're having problems installing Storable?

Anyways, here's a good place to start:

Ok thanks got the file, I'm just taking all precautions in case netfirms ives me some crap. I tried installing it into my extlib and lib folder but got the error

Thanks so much !

The Storable module includes some libraries that need to be compiled and installed by the system adminstrator. Therefore, just placing Storable.pm in your extlib folder will not work.

Damn it! Thanks neways I am really gonna bug netfirms. As I see quite a few people are hosted by them unfortunately and can't ust this amazing feature (nor Image::Magick) I have pestered them a lot and I keep getting the same reply, its on their future installments list sad.gif

Well, if you're ever looking to change hosts, I'd highly recommend my host, Total Choice Web Hosting. I've had a great experience with them.

Do they have Image::Magick and support ure plugins manager ?

Do they have Image::Magick and support ure plugins manager ? The problem is I'm listed in Google and blogshares by my netfirms address and I don't wanna loose this sad.gif
rayners
They do have Image::Magick, and I do all my Plugin Manager testing on my site, so getting it to work shouldn't be too difficult.

I am also having some trouble with Storable.pm

I have never been able to get pluginmanager to work. I have tried but no luck so far. I think I may have heard that the problem had to do with my having set up mt in the cgi-bin directory.

In any case, when I run mt-pm.cgi, I am logged in, the left hand navBar looks fine, but I get the following error message in the main screen:

CODE
An error occurred:
Storable binary image v94.2 more recent than I am (v1.0) at blib/lib/Storable.pm (autosplit into blib/lib/auto/Storable/thaw.al) line 238, at /home/dfareed/www/journal/cgi-bin/lib/MT/PluginData.pm line 28


and the following messages at the bottom of the screen:
CODE
MT::Plugins::Manager=HASH(0x831ba78) substr outside of string at /home/dfareed/www/journal/cgi-bin/lib/MT/Serialize.pm line 58.

Any ideas how I might fix this would be tremendously appreciated.

Thanks in advance
