MARC/Perl on a Windows PC--need some handholding....

2012-06-18 Thread charles hobbs
Greetings all.

Has anyone had much experience/luck running the current MARC/Perl on a PC using 
Perl (Active State, Strawberry, etc.)

Whenever I try to get it to work, it gives me error messages (it can't find the 
modules, etc.)  I'm not even sure I'm putting the modules in the right 
directory.

The makefiles are of little help, as they are designed for Unix (at least on 
the newest version of MARC/Perl)

Again, anyone ever make MARC/Perl work in a Windows environment? 


Thanks in advance!

Hi Charles,

I have always been using MARC::Record on Windows and never had such issue.
What is the exact error message you are getting? Are you installing from
CPAN?

Best regards,
Saiful Amin

Hi Charles,

If you're using ActiveState Perl on Windows, and ppm (its equivalent to CPAN), 
you don't have to use makefiles, ppm installs everything for you.
