Building perl-5.10.0

Hey, this sounds like my issue, except that I'm installing on Window Server 2003. I've completed setup by running the "hanging" shell scripts from another bash shell and then killing that process (which allows setup.exe to continue). Does 00ash.sh work if you run it from another shell? I'm also

Hi, Path wasn't an issue because I did specify full paths, but when I manually copied bash.exe onto sh.exe, and terminated the instance of bash.exe that was trying to run 00ash.sh, the setup did eventually complete. It simply timed out on the remaining scripts (it didn't previously want to time ou

I noticed that if I try to run setup to add more packages, the problem reoccurs. Again, the setup process hangs during post-install, but when I kill it and run the scripts by hand from the (now fully functional) bash console, they all complete without any problems. Krzys -Original Message---
