I think this is due to some lines in the sample startup.pl script under D:/Apache2/conf/ supplied in the distribution that preload some XML::* perl modules. If you don't need these modules, just delete or comment out these lines. If you intend on using these modules, then either copy libxml2.dll (found under D:/Perl/bin/) to a place in your PATH environment variable that Apache recognizes, or else add D:/Perl/bin/ to your PATH. Hope this helps. -- best regards, randy kobes
