Can't locate MIME::Lite.pm in @INC

[pu8y]

Hi all,

I am new in Perl language. I wrote a perl script to send an email notification to users by using:

use MIME::Lite;

However, i get the error:
Can't locate MIME Lite.pm in @INC(@INC contains: /usr/lib/perl5/5.10.0/i386-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/5.10.0 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.10.0/i386-linux-thread-multi /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.10.0 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.10.0/i386-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.10.0 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl .) at email.pl line 5.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at email.pl line 5.

Below is the simplify version for my code. What 's wrong with my coding?

my $message = MIME::Lite->new(
To => 'xxx@mail.com',
Subject => 'message',
Data => 'Message body'
);
$message->send();

You might not have installed MIME::Lite yet.

In a shell enter:

cpan MIME::Lite

And try to rerun your script =)

I entered

cpan MIME::Lite

but i get:
bash: cpan: command not found

The error is fixed after i installed the MIME::Lite module.

Download the MIME::Lite module.
Install the module as follows:

perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install

thats manual.. but its fine
you can see CPAN as a packagemanger for your perl. (eg, yum, apt, ebuild or pacman)
