Woah, that is weird. I think you may have a broken Config.pm file, which is the module that Perl uses to store information about the system it was compiled on. This info is used to generate these makefiles. You might want to check that file out and see if contains something like "/usr/bin'" with that extra apostrophe. Also, maybe try upgrading to the latest version of ExtUtils::MakeMaker and see if that fixes anything. -dave /*======================= House Absolute Consulting www.houseabsolute.com =======================*/
