relocation.pl.bat not found in strawberry download

traincity has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi.. I have downloaded strawberry to use perl on my localhost. Part of the instructions show to run perl\bin\perl.exe relocation.pl.bat It is nowhere to be found on the strawberry I installed! It is not in the bin directory. Am I doing something wrong or is this just something they forgot to include in the newest strawberry download? Any help will be appreciated.

Perhaps you downloaded a different edition than the ZIP edition. Since I usually use the "portable" edition, I know it doesn't have a `relocation` script, instead you start it via the `portableshell.bat` - the same should be true for the PDL edition. In case it's really the ZIP edition, I'd assume it should be either `perl.exe relocation.pl` (without ".bat"), or `relocation.bat` (without .pl and without explicitly calling perl.exe, as that would be called from within the .bat file)	[reply] [d/l] [select]
