    This is solid advice and I up voted your post. If I could give it two votes, I would!

    I have cygwin (a different Perl) on my Windows machine and also an Active State Perl. I strongly recommend a simple "hello world" program and getting that working.

    Showing code is important! The OP should get something simple working and then we can talk about getting something more complex working.

      Thanks, the file which I am using is having more than 1000 lines which is actually related to testing. Sorry for that I can't help on providing the code.. but i will surely give a simple code which will come across this problem.
