Re^14: Flummoxed by strict.pm

BrowserUK, thanks for the note. we may be getting somewhere, because the path shows a path to a Perl that i have in XAMPP, not in C:/perl64/bin. Ikegami said that I might have two Perls installed, and so I do. This is what I got:

C:\Perl64\bin>Hello_world_test.pl
Hello, world!
C:\xampp\perl\bin\perl.exe
[download]

The Xampp Perl does not have the lib with the strict.pm; the Perl64 lib does. Seeing this, I tried to change the path in the Perl file to:

#!c:/perl64/bin/perl.exe
print "Hello, world!\n";
print "$^X\n";
[download]

with the result:

'Hello_world_test_1.pl' is not recognized as an internal or external c
+ommand operable program or batch file.
[download]

so, how do I make it go to the C:/perl64/bin/?

Thanks for any help

The Xampp Perl does not have the lib with the strict.pm; Then it is broken by design and should be scrapped. Seeing this, I tried to change the path in the Perl file to: `#!c:/perl64/bin/perl.exe` As I told you back up there somewhere, Windows doesn't use the shebang line. (Though Apache under Windows might). That's why I though you might also have Cygwin installed. If you use a Cygwin shell, that will emulate the *nix-style of shebang processing. Maybe the XAMPP Shell is something similar? What output do you get from: `set` What output do you see from: `ftype \| find "perl"?`	[reply] [d/l] [select]

so, how do I make it go to the C:/perl64/bin/? Switch to an account with sufficient privileges and fix the association as you tried earlier.	[reply]
