Here is the error when I was trying to install Alien::wxWidgets manually.

    You need to remedy this somehow , download the complete file

      Here is the one, when I tried to install Wx from the CPAN directly. Could not able to figure out where am I going wrong.

        C:\Perl64

        That doesn't look like strawberry perl, how many perls are you running?

        If you installed Wx on ActivePerl , of course its not available through your strawberry perl

        You need to learn about %PATH%

      Sorry about that. I have done it manually for Win32::GuiTest, but forgot how I did. Will not do 'install dmake' ever again. As described in the previous thread, I did download the complete file and ran it and it worked fine. The Alien::wxWidgets successfully installed. But was trying to do the 'Install Wx', the system throwing an error. Thinking of installing the Wx is the same procedure like Alien::wxWidgets, downloaded the Wx from CPAN into my Straberry folder and executed the Makefile.PL and dmake install. Please let me know if this is not the procedure.

      C:\strawberry\Wx-0.9911>dmake install C:\strawberry\perl\bin\perl.exe C:\strawberry\perl\lib\ExtUtils\xsubpp + -noprototypes -nolinenumbers -typemap C:\strawberry\perl\lib\ExtUt +ils\typemap -typemap ..\..\typemap -typemap typemap RichText.xs > RichText.xsc & +& C:\strawberry\perl\bin\perl.exe -MExtUtils::Command -e mv -- RichTe +xt.xsc Rich Text.c Can't locate ExtUtils/XSpp/Cmd.pm in @INC (@INC contains: ../..

        Considered installing ExtUtils::XSpp::Cmd as the error messages say?

        You already have Wx the Perl module installed, you do not have Wx the graphics library installed or Alien installed, see my other post to you here Re^9: wxbase28u_gcc_custom.dll Error. You are having PATH issues locating the Wx C++ DLLs.
        Why are you installing Wx:: again? You installed Wx:: already and got errors that it can't locate the Wx C++ DLLs. You never installed Alien::WxWidgets which would supply the Wx C++ DLLs.
