I have been trying to install Padre on Strawberry on a Windows XP Pro sp3 box which has Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0 installed. 

The distribution was from:
http://code.google.com/p/padre-perl-ide/downloads/detail?name=padre-on-strawberry-5.12.3.0-v5.exe

The error on both installation and launching Padre was:
"This application has failed to start because perl58.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem"

Uninstalls were done using C:\Strawberry\unins000.exe, and any remaining references to Strawberry were removed, but I didn't re-boot

I have never installed perl prior to this (except for oracle doing it on my behalf!!)

I chatted with user azawawi   on mibbit so assume we went through the usual symptoms.

I removed all references to Oracle in the path and prefixed it with C:\Strawberry\perl\bin
Re-named all files named perl58.dll in the oracle homes.
Checked all local disks for perl58.dll
