Hi, I try to install modules from ppm. It shows error for all modules while installing, as shown below :

====================
Install 'XML-XSLT' version 0.48 in ActivePerl 5.8.4.810.
====================
Downloaded 26792 bytes.

Installing C:\Perl\bin\xslt-parser.bat
Successfully installed XML-XSLT version 0.48 in ActivePerl 5.8.4.810.

Error is:

Unable to recognise encoding of this document at C:/Perl/site/lib/XML/SAX/PurePerl/EncodingDetect.pm line 96,  line 3991.

How to avoid this error?. Thanks in advance.

This actually is a warning, not an error, in that the installation still proceeds. The issue is a known one, with a workaround at present being to use a default SAX parser other than XML::SAX::PurePerl. You can do this by:

• installing, for example, XML-SAX-ExpatXS;
• issuing the following command to register it (all on one line):

  C:\>perl -MXML::SAX -e "XML::SAX->add_parser(q(XML::SAX::ExpatXS))->save_parsers()"
