Where did Astro::Time actually get installed? Check the above paths to see if it is actually there, or whether cpan put it somewhere else. If it put Astro::Time elsewhere, you will need to add a PERL5LIB export to your crontab file (or better, make a bash wrapper, point cron to that, and put the PERL5LIB variable there). If you put it in crontab, you should get the current value from your shell, and put that into crontab (verify it looks reasonable first). echo $PERL5LIB # or env |grep PERL5LIB If you don't have PERL5LIB set, you can take the paths you currently have defined (see your path list above) and add the path to Astro::Time to that. --keith -- kkeller at wombat.san-francisco.ca.us
