Hi Monks,

I know this is not specific to Perl, But I hope to find some suggestion from fellow monks..

I have MKS installed on my Win7 machine. When I use cpan on cmd prompt, MKS converts windows path which cause cpan to fail to locate perl.exe. For example:
C:Perl64perlbinperl.exe: not found
Is there anyway I can unset MKS shell on Windows cmd prompt. I need MKS installed on my machine to run my application. Thanks

update: I am using Perl v5.16.3 MSWin32-x64-multi-thread
update2: Thanks a lot Monks!!!. unset shell variable on cmd solved the issue.

set shell=

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
• Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
