You were already talking to ActiveState for this problem and they gave you
what looks like a reasonable answer; at least as a starting point. Why are
you asking here now? They are the experts on PPM since it's their program.

I believe you are receiving this error as a result of a bug in configPPM.
This
has been fixed in the current release, build 628. If you are able, please
upgrade at:
http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Downloads/ActivePerl/
If not, let me know and I'll send you a patch that may help.
If I can provide further information, please let me know.
