Perl: Reconfiguring CPAN

By 18 Jun 2010 | Comment
This is how to edit your list of CPAN mirrors, to remove a problematic one. Go to the Perl CPAN prompt:
perl -MCPAN -e shell
Check your list of mirrors:
cpan> o conf urllist
Shift the first mirror out of the way:
cpan> o conf urllist shift
Commit your changes:
cpan> o conf commit
Your problematic mirror should now be gone. Here are all the CPAN commands in one go:
o conf urllist
o conf urllist shift
o conf commit
