Re^4: Perl issue with Windows 7 vs XP

Hello Kenneth, thank you very much for all your help. I will have to wait for my App Support team to install it for me as I have restricted access to these things. I was really hoping that there would be a small difference that I overlooked between xp and 7 that could be fixed easily.

You can quickly check if Crypt::SSLeay is installed by running `perl -MCrypt::SSLeay -e1` [download] on the command line. If it does not error, then you have the module installed. #11929 First ask yourself `How would I do this without a computer?' Then have the computer do it the same way.	[reply] [d/l]

Hey Kenneth, I figured out the problem I had. It was an access issue. The version of perl I was using was on the network servers and I only had permission to access a sub folder which perl was located in. As such, windows explorer would work fine in locating it, but the path would not be found when perl was executed through cmd.	[reply]

So a partially correct diagnosis - a Win 7 security restriction was preventing the install directories from being read. I think the car talk guys would take it as a win.... Thanks for posting the solution; the more complete this site's archive is, the better it is for everyone. #11929 First ask yourself `How would I do this without a computer?'
