Mailing List Archive: Install Problem (SMTP Failure)

When I attempted to install ASP:Apache on my test server it failed to
install because the server_mail test failed to send an email locally
during the install Bundle ASP:Apache. Below is the message I received.
I'm running qmail and using smtp authenication. Qmail is setup to allow
relaying from the localhost (127.0.0.1).. How can I correct this
problem so that CPAN will install the Bundle? Can I force it? any help
on this is appreciated.. Thank you.

Double-check that you can connect to your SMTP server via script
*period*.

Apache::ASP uses Net::SMTP to send email.
Take a look at
http://www.apache-asp.org/config.html#Mail%20Adminis1a4d2b59 for more
details on this.

If that doesn't help, try going to /root/.cpan/build/Apache-ASP-xxx and
running the tests from the command-line. You may get better errors
there that will help debug the issue.
