Install problems..

[zacforsman]

I'm having trouble installing the perl modules on my Ubuntu server following your instructions.. I tried several alternative ways of installing the perl modules and many of them worked but the script won't run. I second Jon's suggestion of a miniconda installation... I've been fighting with this for hours. Thanks. -Zac

On Ubuntu, the packages wouldn't install with cpan Perl::Module, instead cpan install VCF (all caps) worked for all modules. However when I run
rad_haplotyper.pl I get the following error:

Undefined value assigned to typeglob at /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl5/5.22/List/MoreUtils.pm line 94.

According to the perl documentation:

Undefined value assigned to typeglob
        (W misc) An undefined value was assigned to a typeglob, a la "*foo =
        undef". This does nothing. It's possible that you really mean "undef
        *foo".

Any suggestions on how to install would be most welcome. -Zac

Hi Zac,

What errors did you get when you tried to install the modules with cpan? I don't think I've had a problem with these particular modules on Ubuntu. For example, what error do you get when you run:

cpan List::MoreUtils

[zacforsman]

I get a permissions denied error, unless I do `sudo cpan List::MoreUtils`...oddly, now when I enter `rad_haplotyper.pl` I get the help message! It suddenly looks like it works! Thanks for the help. -Zac
