Hi Carmelo, Again, sorry for the slow response. Your problem is that you have MSYS installed on your computer. Well, that's not really a problem -- MSYS is excellent. However, it comes with a fairly ancient version of perl. The specific problem you are having is that the PATH environment

Tony, Since the last time things were worting has anything changed on your computer? Did you (or you IT administrator) run a particularly aggressive virus scan? Did you install a new version of perl? Or something that brings along a version of perl (git, for example)? How about the tried and
