Question

I'm performing a Wiki install following the WindowsInstallerCookbook. At the end of the section 'Installing required Perl modules' it says to type the testenv url in your browser and then "Find the section called 'Required Perl Modules' and try and install each one with cpan to make sure they are all installed". I did this and had problems with the installation of the CGI module and the File::Spec module. Both modules were newer versions than what was listed in the required module list (listed CGI (3.10), CPAN tried to install 3.11; listed File::Spec (3.05), CPAN tried to install 3.12). The CGI install failed 2 of 17 test scripts and said it won't intall without force. Are the required modules already on my system, and are these errors just upgrade issues that I can ignore? Is there a way to check?
