My apologies if I'm guessing wrong, but it looked like the new apxs-fetching stuff was kicking in (I'm on Windows XP) and needed Archive-Tar to unpack something? But I'm puzzled why it would do that. I have apxs installed already (from apxs_win32.tar.gz): my C:\apache2\bin directory contains apr-config.bat, apr-config.pl, apu-config.bat, apu-config.pl, apxs.bat and apxs.pl. Maybe I'm barking up the wrong tree. Hopefully I'll have time to look at it better tomorrow. - Steve ------------------------------------------------ Radan Computational Ltd.
