I followed the instructions and when I get to Net::CIDR::Lite I get:

cpan> install Net::CIDR::Lite
Net::CIDR::Lite is up to date (0.20).

Again, Id try again after restart to clean up everything.

- Also for several commands this was returned as the final output:

Looks good

I want to install but I'm worried as I don't have a "dev/stage" environment to play with. Thus I'll have to install on live servers. Should I be safe just following the steps outlined? Also it seems like i could easily uninstall and switch back.

I'm going to have to do it all on one machine.

Any other advice before I take this on?


Bob,

The perl is no issue. The install just adds modules that if you don't use is not a problem.

The current installer doesn't install launchd plists so assp will not autostart. You will be able to manually start/stop in case you are worried.

You know you could just install it on your desktop to get a feel for it. You could even use your desktop machine to start as a proxy for awhile until you want to install on a production machine.

Nevertheless there should be no issue installing it on production but read the instructions and faqs and make yourself a checklist to follow in you are going straight onto a production machine is what I would do.
