Chapter 1
The very first thing you should do after configuring the CPAN module is install 
the newest version of the CPAN module and reload it. You can do that with these 
commands:
cpan> install CPAN
cpan> reload CPAN
This will save you the trouble of bumping into bugs in the CPAN module that have 
been fixed since the version that comes with Perl came out. In particular, older ver 
sions of the CPAN module had a nasty habit of trying to upgrade Perl without ask 
ing permission. The examples in this book are based on version 1.59_54 of the 
CPAN module, but using the newest version is always a good idea.
TIP If you're having trouble connecting to CPAN using the CPAN 
module, you might need to manually install the Net::FTP module. See 
the section that follows on installing modules the hard way for details 
on how to do this.
After that, your next stop should be the CPAN bundle. The CPAN bundle con 
tains a number of modules that make the CPAN module much easier to use and 
more robust. To install the bundle, use this command:
cpan> install Bundle::CPAN
NOTE See the  Bundles  section later in this chapter to find out how 
Bundles work.
Now you're ready to install modules. For example, to install the CGI::Application 
module,
8
 you would enter the following command:
cpan> install CGI::Application
And the CPAN module will handle downloading the module, running module 
tests, and installing it. If CGI::Application requires other modules, then the CPAN 
module will download and install those too.
