in thread Problem installing Net::SSLeay and Crypt::SSLeay ..... please help :-D

PM, Thanks for the reply. Here's the info I got on doing what you advised - 

C:\Documents and Settings\Surya Prakash>perl -V:make
make='nmake';

C:\Documents and Settings\Surya Prakash>perl -V:cc
cc='cl';

[download]
Also, I tried CPAN to install the files and I get the same errors as above (the NMAKE ones).
Where should I go from here? Thanks, Surya

    1. Answer all my questions (most importantly, why aren't you using PPM!!!!?)
    2. Get a compiler since you don't have one. If you want to continue using the perl binary you currently have, you will have to buy MSVS (aka cl). You can download other compilers for free (gcc,borland), but that means you'll have to recompile perl (no biggie).

     

    You cannot be selective in the advice you follow (especially with so little advice).
