Perl Compile problems..



I am new to Linux and trying to use some modules (even CGI.pm) and compile
them for the Apache server I am playing with (educational purposes). I am
running Mandrivia 2006..

I am trying to compile a couple of modules and with both of them I get the
same error. I do:

perl Makefile.PL
make

then during the make process, I get

Manifying blib/man3/IO::String.3pm
Can't open blib/man3/IO::String.3pm for writing: Invalid argument
at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.7/ExtUtils/Command/MM.pm line 126
make: *** [manifypods] Error 22

I have tried two different ones and get the same error. The one thing I
noticed is that NOTHING exists in the man3 directory. In the case of this
one, a file called String.pm does exist in the blib/lib/io directory. Same
thing for the other one, the .pm files exist in the blib/lib/Image
directory. Also, I did have to modify the manifest because of CAPS vs.
small on directory names. The makefile did seem to generate with no errors.
make test gives no errors either.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
