I'm using C# with .NET 3.5 SP1 in Visual Studio 2008 SP1. I have a .NET Windows service that I install using the technique described by Marc Gravell here.

Everytime I get to c(tut), I get an error instead of (ok, tut), so it seems like there are no modules installed, can anyone point me in the right direction?

I am trying to setup a directory that contains Perl modules that should be set aside to not interfere with a production system. This works OK, with modules that use Module::Install. I just specify a "lib" option and all is well. Now I tried and tried and I simply cannot make this happen with Module::Build. For instance, this command: ...
