Or if you've already done that then check that perl.exe is in your PATH. Type path at a command prompt and look for something like c:\perl\bin
if it's not there then do path = %path%;c:\perl\bin Replace c:\perl\bin with the correct path to your bin directory To make the changes to the path permanent, go start, settings, system, advanced, environment variables and add to the PATH.
