Hi all, === This is Perl 5.20.1 for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread-64int === What ToDo? How to install? --------------------------------- This Perl installation is NOT portable - it MUST be installed in the folder C:\Perl! The resulting folder structure has to be like this: C:\Perl>dir 25.02.2015 14:57 <DIR> . 25.02.2015 14:57 <DIR> .. 25.02.2015 09:16 <DIR> bin 25.02.2015 07:51 <DIR> etc 25.02.2015 13:32 <DIR> html 25.02.2015 07:50 <DIR> lib 16.09.2014 04:59 1.973 README.txt 25.02.2015 15:32 217 set_ppm_repo.bat 25.02.2015 07:51 <DIR> site The following additional software is included in this installation: tesseract pdftk ImageMagick OpenSSL All required modules are included and uptodate (Feb. 25. 2015), except Devel::Size and NetSNMP::agent - which are currently not running under Perl 5.20 under Windows. Devel::Size is only required for advanced debug functions. NetSNMP::agent is required to monitor and manage assp via SNMP. Disable 'useNetSNMPagent' in the assp configuration to prevent module load errors. MIMGW - the C compiler (gcc) is included. It is possible to install modules from CPAN. To use this installation for assp, add the following to the TOP(!!!) of the system PATH variable: C:\Perl\site\bin\OpenSSL\bin;C:\Perl\site\bin\ImageMagick;C:\Perl\site\bin;C:\Perl\bin; It is not necessary to run the assp module installer script - everything is done for you. How ever - it is recommended to extract the assp.mod.zip to the assp folder. To keep your Perl installation up to date, modify and run the set_ppm_repo.bat one time. After that, every time you want to check for updated Perl module versions, start a commandline and type C:\Perl>ppm-shell ppm> update --install Thomas
