Trying to install win32 perl. Installed the latest perl via ActiveState. Created and rana simple a.pl using core perl. Now I'm up to DBI. Not using PPm for networking issues. Downloaded latest DBI (1.51) from CPAN and unzipped. Did the perl Makefile.PL. cool. Then started with make. It did two pm modules then errored out with "don't know how to make c:\Perl\libConfig.pm". This seems to be so basic I would think I screwed up the installation. Looking at the error message I would think there's a syntactical eror in that I would think it wants to make c:\Perl\lib\Config.pm. Any suggestions? JonL
