in thread Perl issue with Windows 7 vs XP

Hello Kenneth, thank you very much for all your help. I will have to wait for my App Support team to install it for me as I have restricted access to these things. I was really hoping that there would be a small difference that I overlooked between xp and 7 that could be fixed easily.

    You can quickly check if Crypt::SSLeay is installed by running
    perl -MCrypt::SSLeay -e1

    on the command line. If it does not error, then you have the module installed.

      Hey Kenneth, I figured out the problem I had. It was an access issue. The version of perl I was using was on the network servers and I only had permission to access a sub folder which perl was located in. As such, windows explorer would work fine in locating it, but the path would not be found when perl was executed through cmd.

        So a partially correct diagnosis - a Win 7 security restriction was preventing the install directories from being read. I think the car talk guys would take it as a win....

        Thanks for posting the solution; the more complete this site's archive is, the better it is for everyone.
