I am trying to setup my website as a CVS site. I found an open source program (sandweb <a href="http://sandweb.sf.net)" target="_blank">http://sandweb.sf.net)</a> that allows users to access the CVS repository from the web. However it requires the following perl modules to set it up:<br /> * HTML-Template ( tested with 2.6 )<br /> * Test-Harness ( tested with 2.26 )<br /> * Test-Simple ( tested with 0.47 )<br /> * XML-NamespaceSupport ( tested with 1.08 )<br /> * XML-SAX ( tested with 0.12 )<br /> * XML-Simple ( tested with 2.02 )<br /> * Digest::MD5 ( tested with 2.13-2 )<br />I later found that HTML-Template and XML-Simple modules are not in the system. I know I cannot install them to the central directory. Is it possible to install them in my home directory.<!--content-->
Well, for HTML::Template, you should be able to just drop in the module. In the directory you're running this script from, create an HTML directory, and place Template.pm in there (you can get it <a href="http://search.cpan.org/src/SAMTREGAR/HTML-Template-2.6/Template.pm" target="_blank">here</a>).<br /><br />As for XML::Simple, I haven't tried this myself, but you should be able to do the same kind of thing. Create an XML directory in the script directory, and place Simple.pm in there (available <a href="http://search.cpan.org/src/GRANTM/XML-Simple-2.05/lib/XML/Simple.pm" target="_blank">here</a>).<br /><br />I hope that helps. Good luck. I love CVS. <img src="http://www.totalchoicehosting.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="

Oops, I could not try this setup because SSH session had disappeared under the Advanced section in the Cpanel. Does anyone know why? I have no other ways to get to command prompt to run the sandweb setup script.<!--content-->
Hi,<br /><br />Did you apply for SSH before we stopped supplying it?<br /><br />Jim<!--content-->
I don't think I applied for it. It has been in the Advanced section in the Cpanel since I had my account (I joined 3 weeks ago). Can you tell me how get it back? Thanks.<!--content-->
Shell access had been enabled for a number of accounts on your server by mistake. Please see the Help Pages for info on how to apply for access. I played around with the PHP Shell program as well (mentioned at the bottom of the SSH page.) It may do what you need to do.<!--content-->
SSH access is available upon request and approval. There are two alternatives for a PHP scripted SSH look alike. For more info, <a href="http://www.totalchoicehosting.com/help/sshpage.htm" target="_blank">click here.</a><br /><br />-kw<!--content-->
OK, I setup phpshell and I am now able to run some shell commands through the web client. Now back to my original question, I put the whole sandweb directory in the www directory, and the required modules in www/cgi-bin directory. I tried to run the perl Makefile.PL in the sandweb directory to generate a makefile but got the following error: <br />"Checking if your kit is complete...<br />Looks good<br />Unable to open MakeMaker.tmp: Permission denied at /usr/lib/perl5/5.6.1/ExtUtils/MakeMaker.pm line 750.<br />Writing Makefile for SandWeb ". <br /><br />I don't have enough permission to gerenate the makefille. Any workaround? thanks.<!--content-->
