When attempting to use the CPAN command line, I am unable to either reload index or install any modules. There is an error with SQLite. If I disable the use of SQLite, I get a different error. Both are listed below. Has anyone found this problem before? How did you fix it?

You don’t need to reinstall Strawberry anytime you have a problem. I know this is Windows, but life is better than that. Try deleting C:\strawberry\cpan\sources\modules\02packages.details.txt.gz, which appears to be corrupted. CPAN.pm should re-download it if it is missing.
