Hi, I need to install Curl, and It seems to just hang after I do
"install WWW::Curl"

Checking if your kit is complete...
Looks good

t/01basic.................

this is where it hangs...
when I type <control>c, then I get this:

make: *** [test_dynamic] Interrupt
/usr/bin/make test -- NOT OK
Running make install
make test had returned bad status, won't install without force
Failed during this command:
CRISB/WWW-Curl-3.02.tar.gz : make_test NO

Does anybody know what is going on?

thanks

There is some info in the README file regarding environment variables
that may help

Everything Jay Savage said applies (mainly, do you have a working curl
in your machine?)

I reached the same wall when trying to install the module. If one
takes a look at the test script t/01basic.t (which can be seen here:
http://search.cpan.org/src/CRISB/WW....02/t/01basic.t),
we see a URL which defaults to $ENV{CURL_TEST_URL} || "" and an
attempt to read input from user and to access the network.

I am behind an authenticating proxy, so to use curl, I needed

curl --proxy proxy-host:port --proxy user:password URL

To use just

curl URL

I created a ~/.curlrc with the two lines

proxy= proxy-host:port
proxy-user= user:password

(Apparently this is used by libcurl as well - which is just what we
want from Perl.)

I setted the environment variable

$ CURL_TEST_URL=http://search.cpan.org/dist/WWW-Curl
$ export CURL_TEST_URL

And then, after testing with "perl -Mblib t/01basic.t", I discovered
that I could get away with murder by redirecting /dev/null to STDIN

make test < /dev/null

and it worked (almost with the output at the end of this message). I
don't understand all the details, but the module most works after all.

Regards,
Adriano Ferreira
