Re^3: error upgrading DBI module

How was Perl installed to begin with? Is it Strawberry, or ActiveState? ...it's been years since I've worked with a Windows installation of Perl, but back then, the Strawberry tooling was better for installing CPAN modules. And ActiveState used PPM distributions.

Can you do a fresh install of Perl and everything else? Is WSL an option for you?

I used Activestate to install Perl. My version of perl is perl 5, version 16, subversion 3 (v5.16.3) built for MSWin32-x64-multi-thread, perhaps it is time to upgrade perl.	[reply]
