IIRC "C:\p4view\Apps\ActivePerl\MSI\data\ActivePerl\Perl\site\lib" is the actual directory in which ActiveState build their perl distros.
When you install one of their builds, that location should be overwritten with the actual location in which you're installing perl. Apparently, wrt ppm at least, that didn't happen.

I think you probably did something you shouldn't have done when installing this build of ActivePerl - eg, you unzipped the package directly to C:\Perl, instead of unzipping to a temporary location then installing into C:\Perl by running the Installer.bat.

Which package did you download (msi or zip) and how did you install it ?

Cheers,
Rob
