pmu has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question: Respected Monks, I am planning to build Perl off of Strawberry Perl (version 5.16.3) for the following reasons: 1) The current project that I am in has management servers that have Activestate Perl version 5.12 pre installed, but there are many Perl scripts which depend on it. I am treating it as a "System Perl" and do not want to fiddle with it. Access to the outside world is disabled from those servers. Hence I cannot also install required modules on it. 2) A script I had created in my earlier project heavily depends on Net::SSH2, MIME::Lite, Config::Tiny, Excel::Writer::XLSX and couple other modules that do not come pre installed with Strawberry Perl. 3) I want to use this opportunity to be able know how to build perl based off of Strawberry. As of now I am referring - http://strawberryperl.com/documentation/building.html and will try to build it over this weekend , but I will be extremely thankful if someone has already done this and could provide some extra pointers/documentation. Edit: Kindly note that I will be building off of 32 bit Perl. My laptop is running on 64 Bit Windows 7, but the servers are 32 bit Windows 2003 Servers. Any precautions that I need to take? Any gotchas that I'll have to watch out for?
