I am on Linux box where CPAN is not working for downloading any perl modules. When I try "perl -MCPAN -e shell" as root as well as a user, I get following error:
Code:
Can't locate CPAN.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib64/perl5 /usr/local/share/perl5 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 .).
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted.
So I tried to install CPAN by running "yum install perl-CPAN" but I get following error in response:
Code:
Loaded plugins: product-id, rhnplugin, security, subscription-manager
This system is not registered to Red Hat Subscription Management. You can use subscription-manager to register.
There was an error communicating with RHN.
RHN Satellite or RHN Classic support will be disabled.
Error Message:

Could not get metalink https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=epel-6&arch=x86_64 error was
14: PYCURL ERROR 56 - "Proxy CONNECT aborted"
Setting up Install Process
No package perl-CPAN available.
Error: Nothing to do
I searched for this error and found that it's result of system (system-id from file /etc/sysconfig/rhn/systemid not present in RHN) not being registered with RHN. The solution suggested there is to re-register the system. Many users have posted that it didn't help them either.
So by the time I get this registration thing cleared, is there any way to install perl-CPAN on my machine without using yum?
Thank you in advance!

Update:
I have downloaded the CPAN-2.05.tar.gz
Before I go ahead and install it, can someone please suggest me under which directory I should extract it?
I have root permission and have already posted @INC.
I believe you can extract it to any directory you like. Then you need to run:
1. perl Makefile.PL
2. make
3. make test
4. make install
If you run into errors with these commands (like missing libraries) and don't see any obvious solutions (like a typo) I suggest waiting until your RHN registration is complete as it will most likely be a much simpler solution.

Having a script.pl how can I automatically download from CPAN all required modules and install and update as required? Something like "emerge -uDNav world" for the perl?
