No need to downgrade your perl. You can get Win32::Perms from Dave's own PPM repository at http://www.roth.net/perl/packages.

c:\> ppm ppm> rep add DaveRoth http://www.roth.net/perl/packages ppm> search Win32::Perms ppm> install 1

    Yes, I already downloaded this module, but it does not work with Active State 5.8. Unless I installed something wrong.

      Yes, you must have done something wrong. I have

      c:\temp>perl -v This is perl, v5.8.0 built for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread (with 1 registered patch, see perl -V for more detail) Copyright 1987-2002, Larry Wall Binary build 805 provided by ActiveState Corp. http://www.ActiveState. +com Built 18:08:02 Feb 4 2003
      and Win32::Perms 20020605 and everything works fine.

      How did you install the module? Could you try to uninstall it and then do this:

      c:\> ppm ppm> rep add RothConsulting http://www.roth.net/perl/packages (some messages I can't remember) ppm> search Win32::Perms Searching in Active Repositories 1.

        Did exactly what you said. I'm getting a "No suitable installation target" error now, which points to version incompatiblity. Any ideas?
