Re^8: Problem with wxperl/constructors.pm

[bedohave9]

I have had a check in the "\\HKLM\Software\Perl" and found the below line items. Do I need these to be removed from the "\\HKLM\Software\Perl"?

Name Type Data

(Default) REG_SZ C:\Perl64

BinDir REG_SZ C:\Perl64\bin\perl.exe

[bulk88]

Yes. Delete the Perl key. All Win32 Perls questionable (IMHO) check their registry key for what normally are shell enviromental variables. Your Strawberry Perl is trying to load parts of ActivePerl into itself and vice versa. Do a "perl -V" at console and check what is for @INC at the bottom of the console message. The folders must be only refer to only 1 install/version of Perl.

FWIW, neither ActivePerl nor StrawberryPerl actually set any of those registry entries described in http://perldoc.perl.org/perlwin32.html#Environment-Variables

[bedohave9]

I also have added the http_proxy to the environment variables trying to resolve this. The http_proxy restricted me to install Wx module and other related modules into my system. I have removed it then. Just also wanted to include this point.

Can you start a new thread and either link to this, or copy this post into the new thread and also link or copy Re^10: Problem with wxperl/constructors.pm into that thread. I, myself, don't understand this -V at all. You downloaded ActivePerl's source code and compiled ActivePerl yourself under GCC? Or did you install one of those "I dont own a MS C compiler, so I want to use free Mingw GCC to compile XS modules for my MS C Perl" modules from CPAN? I dont know. Of course you need to compile and install Wx now that you have the right CPAN shell loading the right Perl (or you still don't based on that -V).

I just tried executing after removing the hotkeys and environment variables etc and executed the script. Now, I am getting the below error.

C:\Documents and Settings\xyz\Desktop\Perl>simpleapp.pl
Can't locate Wx.pm in @INC 
(@INC contains: 
C:/strawberry/perl/site/lib

I have the below script on top of the code :

 # add directory to start of @INC at compile-time
BEGIN {
shift @INC, 'C:/strawberry/perl/site/lib' 
}

Here is the error thrown on the console. There is a slight variance when I have added this script on top of the code. Earlier, the console used to show the path "C:/strawberry/perl/site/lib", but now it is showing the vendor/lib and perl/lib in the error message, but when I added all the three paths to the script, it still throws the same error as below. Please do see the previous one and this one.

So did you install Wx?
