Re^3: Problem running Sample code in Strawberry perl

Ok, it looks like you are using Strawberry Perl to install Win32::GuiTest then trying to run one of the example scripts using ActiveState Perl.

From the command line perl -V will give you details about which version of Perl is being run. Strawberry Perl is installed to c:\strawberry by default IIRC. You need to address that issue but I think you already had a long discusion about this topic in the ChatterBox yesterday.

I can't advise on uninstalling ActiveState Perl from your machine, because I don't know your reasons for having both versions installed.

I think when launching Perl, it's best to either set up `$ENV{PATH}` so that only one `perl.exe` is found, or to be (very) explicit in specifying which `perl.exe` to use. For example the following will always launch Strawberry Perl: `c:\strawberry\perl\bin\perl.exe myscript.pl` [download] Personally, I have a file `path.cmd` in each directory containing a Perl installation, which sets up `$ENV{PATH}` so that only the `perl.exe` below it is found: `@echo off SET BASE=%~dp0 path %BASE%\perl\bin;%BASE%\mingw\bin;%BASE%\dmake\bin;%PATH%` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Thanks Martin for the help After uninstalling the Active perl now when I run the calc.pl it gives same error `C:\Documents and Settings\admin\Desktop>perl calc.pl Can't locate loadable object for module Win32::GuiTest in @INC (@INC c +ontains: C :/strawberry/perl/lib C:/strawberry/perl/site/lib .) at calc.pl line 1 Compilation failed in require at calc.pl line 1. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at calc.pl line 1.` [download] I think Active perl and strawberry perl both are not getting the path of Win32::GuiTest module ? The problem was solved by following Martin and corion suggestions thanks all for the help.	[reply] [d/l]
