Download Perl.exe For Windows

[Karri Weston]

<div>It seems that there is some issue with the 2.20.1 version of Git for Windows which gets stuck on perl.exe. It seems to be connected with this ticket in github - I have tested 2.20.0 and it also works fine so the problem is only with the latest Git version.</div><div></div><div></div><div>I have been trying to use the Perl Scripting node in KNIME 3.6.1 for windows (Windows server 16) though I keep running into this problem. I have been able to find three different Perl installations on this system (or at least three different occurrences of perl.exe):</div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>download perl.exe for windows</div><div></div><div>Download File: https://t.co/egM9LbudQE </div><div></div><div></div><div>I have been using TeX Live 2010 on my Windows 7 computer for some time now, without problems. Recently I decided to use the TeX Live Manager to check for updates, which were successfully installed. The next time I tried to start the Manager, I started getting the perl.exe has stopped working error. The TeX Live Installation itself is working just fine, the only problem is the TeX Live Manager. I have tried restarting the computer but it didn't help. What should I do to get it to work?</div><div></div><div></div><div>When I tried installing TeX Live 2011 over the Internet in Windows 7 64-bit (running install-tl batch file), I got the same perl.exe has stopped working error. I was thinking to install a TeX using ISO image but finally decided to try again the first method however this time before running the install-tl I installed Perl for Windows (Strawberry Perl version 5.14.2.1) from and then I run the install-tl again. And now everything was fine and I successfully installed the Tex Live 2011!</div><div></div><div></div><div>I have just compiled Perl 5.16.0 from source on Windows 7 32 bit using VC 9.0/nmake. The perl.exe is created and installed; it seems to run OK, make test did have some errors but most passed ; no other comprehensive tests but a basic perl script returns the printed message. Now I want to install CPAN modules, but unable to, it's the same for any module I try - YAML , JSON , common::sense .</div><div></div><div></div><div>I also have Strawberry perl installed on same machine, but have removed it from %PATH% in order to work with my version. However, I did test the Strawberry perl.exe with Makefile.PL and it produced the makefile. So it does look like my compiled perl.exe or its related binaries are missing something.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Error message:Checking if your kit is complete...Looks goodWriting Makefile for YAMLJSON 2.5 is required for $ENVPERL_JSON_BACKEND = 'JSON::XS' at C:/path/to/perl/lib/CPAN/Meta/Converter.pm line 23. at C:/path/to/perl/lib/ExtUtils/MM_Any.pm line 1335.END failed--call queue aborted.Warning: No success on command[C:\path\to\perl\bin\perl.exe Makefile.P+L]'YAML' not installed, will not store persistent state MSTROUT/YAML-0.84.tar.gz C:\path\to\perl\bin\perl.exe Makefile.PL -- NOT OKRunning make test Make had some problems, won't testRunning make install Make had some problems, won't installCould not read metadata file.

Thanks, Corion.Now install progresses to running the tests, but fails at :</div><div></div><div></div><div>NB: On stick, it's "strwawberry/perl/bin/perl.exe",the other is "R:\School Programs\sample.pl", "School Programs\sample.bat" and shortcut is "R:\RunMe\sample.bat" in the target field.(Start In is empty ... I can't set this as Drive letter will vary from user to user !)</div><div></div><div></div><div>After a lot of trial and error, I found that (so far) it seems to work without the use of a batch script, using a CMD shortcut, and relative links to the location of the script. So the command I am now using in the "Target" field is C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe \k "..\strawPerlPort\perl\bin\perl.exe ..\School_Programs\sample.pl"</div><div></div><div></div><div>I had the same problem with Windows Server 2003, strawberry, and Bugzilla. My "solution" was to copy the missing .dll files to c:\windows\system32, whenever the system told me that it couldn't find a dll. The missing .dll files were all in the path. Previously I tried copying them to the directory where perl.exe is, and other places, but nothing worked. The only exception was the libmysql_.dll file, which worked when copied to the /strawberry/perl/vendor/lib/auto/DBD/mysql directory.</div><div></div><div></div><div>I've corrected the problem by removing perl path statements in the windows environment variables. They were at the beginning of the string from an old install. The strawberry install added it's own path statements at the end. This allowed the new strawberry intall to search the paths in the correct order.</div><div></div><div></div><div>The genuine perl.exe file is a software component of ActivePerl by ActiveState, a division of Sophos.</div><div></div><div>Perl.exe is an executable file that belongs to ActivePerl, a Perl distribution used by developers to install Perl.
