in thread Can't locate object method "__Load_plugins" via MozRepl

So in lieu of the fact that I had seemingly tried everything to get this package to install correctly (there seemed to be others that were having a difficult time installing as well), I just took the easy way out and copied the entire perl64 folder from the computer with which I initially constructed the code and replaced the folder on the new computers.

The good news is it now works. The bad news is I have no idea how to properly fix this issue in the future.

    If you have a backup of the original non-working perl64 folder, you could compare it with the working perl64 folder using a program that can compare folders, like WinDiff, or WinMerge.
    Then you'd copy different files files that are different or missing, one at a time from the working to the non-working folders until you'd fixed it.

    After that you should delete the "fixed" (previously non-working, but now working) perl64 folder as some modules would be in a half-installed mess. Then do a proper install of perl64 and apply the info you learnt when you fixed it.


    UPDATE: corrected ambiguity in my English:
    s/different files/files that are different or missing/
