I do not understand the reasoning for the no library found message as the path is correct and the file is there. As part of the debug, I'm trying to update/install the ExtUtils::MakeMaker module which is failing for what looks like different reasons.C:\Users\ssdlab>cpan Lab::VISA CPAN: CPAN::SQLite loaded ok (v0.199) Database was generated on Wed, 11 Feb 2015 18:41:55 GMT Running install for module 'Lab::VISA' CPAN: YAML loaded ok (v0.71) Running make for A/AK/AKHUETTEL/Lab-VISA-3.02.tar.gz CPAN: Digest::SHA loaded ok (v5.48) CPAN: Compress::Zlib loaded ok (v2.024) Checksum for C:\strawberry\cpan\sources\authors\id\A\AK\AKHUETTEL\Lab- +VISA-3.02.tar.gz ok CPAN: Archive::Tar loaded ok (v1.54) CPAN: File::Temp loaded ok (v0.22) CPAN.pm: Going to build A/AK/AKHUETTEL/Lab-VISA-3.02.tar.gz WARNING: AUTHOR takes a string/number not a ARRAY reference.

The message that "The system cannot find the path specified." is not particularly helpful. What path? Where is it being specified? I feel like the MakeMaker not being installed may be what is screwing up the Lab::VISA installation but I'm stuck at this point.CPAN: CPAN::SQLite loaded ok (v0.199) Database was generated on Wed, 11 Feb 2015 18:41:55 GMT Running install for module 'ExtUtils::MakeMaker' CPAN: YAML loaded ok (v0.71) Running make for B/BI/BINGOS/ExtUtils-MakeMaker-7.04.tar.gz CPAN: Digest::SHA loaded ok (v5.48) CPAN: Compress::Zlib loaded ok (v2.024) Checksum for C:\strawberry\cpan\sources\authors\id\B\BI\BINGOS\ExtUtil +s-MakeMaker-7.04.tar.gz ok CPAN: Archive::Tar loaded ok (v1.54) CPAN: File::Temp loaded ok (v0.22) CPAN.pm: Going to build B/BI/BINGOS/ExtUtils-MakeMaker-7.04.tar.gz Using included version of CPAN::Meta (2.120351) because it is not alre +ady installed.
