in thread Perl Memcached client under Windows XP

No extra information from the "or die ..." catch unfortunately. It doesn't fault there.

Yes, the ONLY problem I have is with a fully updated Windows XP (SP3) client to (seemingly) anything. I've also ruled out any firewalls or anti-virus software

Are other people running it (the perl client) on XP without problems? I assume so - or am I doing something really peculiar in wanting to do that?

    Cache::Memcached works "well" on Win32 for me, except that there seems to be a newline issue when connecting to a Linux memcached. Connecting to the local memcached makes the following program pass without warnings:

    #!/usr/bin/env perl -w

use strict;
use Test::More;
use Cache::Memcached;


#my $testaddr = "aliens:11211";
my $testaddr = "localhost:11211";
    plan tests => 20;

my $memd = Cache::Memcached->new({
    servers   => [ $testaddr ],
    namespace => "Cache::Memcached::t/$$/" . (time() % 100) . "/",
});

isa_ok($memd, 'Cache::Memcached');

my $memcached_version;

#eval {
#    require version;
#    die "version too old" unless $version::VERSION >= 0.77;
#    $memcached_version =
#        version->parse(
#            $memd->stats('misc')->{hosts}->{$testaddr}->{misc}->{vers
+ion}
#        );
#    diag("Server version: $memcached_version") if $memcached_version;
#};
#diag $@ if $@;

ok($memd->set("key1", "val1"), "set key1 as val1");

is($memd->get("key1"), "val1", "get key1 is val1");
ok(! $memd->add("key1", "val-replace"), "add key1 properly failed");
ok($memd->add("key2", "val2"), "add key2 as val2");
is($memd->get("key2"), "val2", "get key2 is val2");

ok($memd->replace("key2", "val-replace"), "replace key2 as val-replace
+");
is($memd->get("key2"), "val-replace", "get key2 is val-replace");
ok(! $memd->replace("key-noexist", "bogus"), "replace key-noexist prop
+erly failed");

ok($memd->delete("key1"), "delete key1");
ok(! $memd->get("key1"), "get key1 properly failed");

SKIP: {
  skip "Could not parse server version; version.pm 0.77 required", 7
      unless $memcached_version;
  skip "Only using prepend/append on memcached >= 1.2.4, you have $mem
+cached_version", 7
      unless $memcached_version && $memcached_version >= v1.2.4;

  ok(! $memd->append("key-noexist", "bogus"), "append key-noexist prop

  ok($memd->prepend("key3", "start-"), "prepended start- to key3");
  ok($memd->get("key3", "start-base-end"), "key3 is base-end");
}

# also test creating the object with a list rather than a hash-ref
my $mem2 = Cache::Memcached->new(
                                 servers   => [ ],
                                 debug     => 1,
                                );
isa_ok($mem2, 'Cache::Memcached');
ok($mem2->{debug}, "debug is set on alt constructed instance");

    This is using Cache::Memcached 1.28.

    I'm using Strawberry Perl, but I doubt that this is the cause:

      I'm using Strawberry Perl, but I doubt that this is the cause:

      I'm less confident of that.

      FWIW I've stopped using the GUI PPM to install and have instead used CPAN. That, at least, tells me that it has failed lots of tests and won't actually install it at all.

      Here's my CPAN dump

      I've tried versions 1.24, 1.26 and 1.28 now with no joy and noted from stackoverflow that others seem to be having the same problem.

      http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2196568/is-there-a-perl-memcached-client-that-works-on-windows-xp

      Anyone out there using Activestate perl and Cache::Memcached on Win32?
