So, finally that step is done. Here is what I have done: - installed a German XP Home in a KVM virtual machine - installed VS2008 Then the tricky part begins. On a German XP the home directory looks like "C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\...". My first naive try was to create a subdirectory there and nmake && nmake test. But then nmake test gives you a lot of errors of the type "program C:\Dokumente not found". So, there are 2 points that I have found: - don't use vista, haven't tried win7 - don't use directory names with blanks Torsten Förtsch -- Need professional modperl support? Hire me!
