Re: Can't get ppm to install anything - One Step ahead | Re: Can't get ppm to install anything
Here's the output

Describing Active Repository 1:
    Name: ActiveState PPM2 Repository
Location: http://ppm.ActiveState.com/cgibin/PPM/ppmserver.pl?urn:/PPMServer

    Type: PPMServer 2.0

But when trying again to install
      ppm>  install String-Approx
      Error: no suitable installation target found for package
String-Approx.

So I learned that I can't just type 'ppm' from anyDirectory in a Dos-Shell
only
                1.  'ppm.bat'  from anyDirectory in a Dos-Shell
         or   2. 'ppm' from my Start-Menu

Cheers,
Armin

What are your configured repositories?  That is, what is the output of
running the following command:

  >  ppm rep desc
