What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. ran "cpan Finance::Quote" in Windows CMD 2. ran "cpan Finance::Quote" in Windows Power Shell 3. ran cpan XML::Simple

What is the expected output? What do you see instead? Attempted to install external non-stock modules using the standard CPAN command with no avail:

Thanks, Francis.

Turns out my overall OS (system variables) PATH variable was missing "C:\Windows\system32" Found this resolution though: http://groups.google.com/group/camelbox/browse_thread/thread/5601a1962cec9eac/b48c960b3f94ffb7?lnk=gst&q=tar#b48c960b3f94ffb7

Can anyone mark this as resolved?
