Re: PXPerl CPAN windows problem

I have installed PXPerl for Windows

Given the problems you've experienced, as shown in the various compiler logs, I wonder whether you might want to try Strawberry Perl instead. Is there a specific reason that you need to use PXPerl?

On the perl.com download page there was two choices, ActiveState, the first downloader I dowloaded didn't work so then I decided to try PXPerl which was the other choice. As long as I can download new modules and compile them I am happy. So Strawberry Perl is better then? Anders, Norway	[reply]

So Strawberry Perl is better then? Well, it has more active development and a few more things "just work" as result. You can find a lot of information on it and other Win32 Perl distributions at win32.perl.org. -xdg Code written by xdg and posted on PerlMonks is public domain.

Thanks for all the help. I think I will try CamelPack first since I am a beginner at Perl and then I might change to Strawberry Perl later. Anders, Norway	[reply]
