Missing Perl Mod Table.pm

[BeartoothTech]

I am not sure this is the correct forum but please bear with me.

I have converted from an ancient release of Red Hat to Ubuntu 11.04. I have resolved most of the conversion problems except for one. A number of my CGI Scipts require the Perl Module Table.pm. It has not been installed. Where do I find that module and how can I install it?

:confused:

There should be a longer name, because there are many table.pm (http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=contents&keywords=Table.pm&mode=exactfilename&suite=natty&arch=any) files.

What do the require, use or include statements at the beginning of the program tell you? Those are the modules you need.

The use modules are:

use strict;
use DBI;
use CGI qw(fatalsToBrowser);
use HTML::Table;


The message in the error.log is:

Thanks for the response.

use DBI;
use CGI qw(fatalsToBrowser);
use HTML::Table;


It's probably DBI you're missing. It should be in libdbi-perl (http://packages.ubuntu.com/natty/libdbi-perl). See if it's installed.

Edit: Scratch that.

It's probably HTML::Table. That will be in libhtml-table-perl

How can I get a list of packages that are installed? I am just starting with Ubuntu. I did a scan (find) of the system and Table.pm does not exist.

Also, how would I install the package?

Would I use "sudo apt-get libhtml-table-perl install"?

sudo apt-get install libhtml-table-perl libdbi-perl

How can I get a list of packages that are installed?


dpkg -l |awk '/^ii/ { print $2 }'

or


dpkg -l |awk '/^ii.*-perl/ { print $2 }'

[BeartoothTech]

dpkg -l |awk '/^ii/ { print $2 }'

or


dpkg -l |awk '/^ii.*-perl/ { print $2 }'



Thanks for your help. I added those two packages and everything worked.
