My question is - do you really need 5.5.2 ? I was told it is unstable under 2.2.8 (this is what i run) - so i downloaded the 5.4.4 archive, uncompressed it and installed it by hand - quite simple. All problems went away -so if you don't need perl 5.5.2 - and perl5.4.4 will do just as well- perhasp this helps ? bye rudi Jeff Vehrs wrote: > > I've checked dejanews website for a solution.
