Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Here's the simple answer, we can't.

You need, at the very least, to give us at least a clue to the problem.

What OS are you installing it on?

What error(s) are you receiving?

I'm running XP Home, SP2

I don't get any errors, I just don't know how to do the install.

Since you're on Windows, you'd use the ppm utility (assuming you're using activestate perl) to install the module(s).

for example:

C:\>ppm install Flickr-Upload
Downloading ActiveState Package Repository packlist...not modified
Downloading Flickr-Upload-1.29...done
Downloading XML-Parser-Lite-Tree-0.03...done
Downloading Flickr-API-0.08...done
Unpacking Flickr-Upload-1.29...done
Unpacking XML-Parser-Lite-Tree-0.03...done
Unpacking Flickr-API-0.08...done
Generating HTML for Flickr-Upload-1.29...done
Generating HTML for XML-Parser-Lite-Tree-0.03...done
Generating HTML for Flickr-API-0.08...done
Installing to site area...done
14 files installed

The HTML::TreeBuilder module might already be installed. You can test that it's installed with this command:C:\>perl -MHTML::TreeBuilder -e 1
If you don't get any output, then that means the module is installed. If you receive an error message, then it means that the module isn't installed and you'd install it with this command:C:\>ppm install HTML-TreeBuilder
That was the easy part. The fp2flickr script described at the site you found is designed to work on Linux, not Windows. It would need to be modified, which may or may not be easy; I haven't looked at the script in detail.

Hi,

I have followed the above steps, but don't know what to do next, how do I edit the fp2flickr script/ run it?


Sorry if I sound stupid (I am really:))
