RE: Perl for Windows 98

--howdy:

--i did download and install the, er,
installer 2.0 for windows '98 (it's called
InstMsiA).

--it installs and reboots the system,
but when i try to install ActivePerl 5.6.1
behind that, i get a messages that says
something like, 'Can't install'.

--i'm sorry i don't have the exact error message
to post ... but that's why i'm looking for
another version of Perl to install without the
pre-installer package.

hi,
I think its trying to use the microsoft installer which will need installing
on win98

look at the Windows 98 bit and you see what you need to install first

Howdy:

Where can I get Perl 5.6.x for Windows '98?

I did try ActivePerl, but am still having
problems with the installs (there is a package
to install called 'InstMsia.exe' that is
supposed to help, but doesn't).  However,
the ActivePerl 5.6.1 DOES work for my NT
servers.

TIA!
