Can't spawn "C:\APPS\Perl\bin\parl.exe"
I assume you've checked to see if that really exists on your machine...is that actually there?

    Yes. It is.
      Well, that is strange...I've had similar situations that just drove me crazy. Sometimes case (i.e.uc or lc) is a problem (often doesn't matter for file names/paths in Windows, but occasionally it does), and sometimes those backslashes can get interpreted as escapes so you need more backslashes (although if you did an install via ppm, that should have been taken care of.) Sometimes also (on Windows) a long path gets translated into something peculiar. Seems like it has to be something of that sort since the executable is there but isn't found.
      Sorry I likely haven't been much help...
