I thought OpenVMS VAX v7.3 had lifted the 8-level limit, but perhaps not. Currently Perl is getting installed in DEV:[PERLBUILD.PERL.]. You might try moving it up one level to DEV:[PERL.] and see if that helps. It may not, but it's worth a try. Do $ @build_perl dev:[perl.] or $ submit build_perl/param=dev:[perl.] and see if that helps. Obviously replace "dev" with your physical device name, volume label, or other suitable equivalent. You can change [perl.] to [perl-5_6_1.] or whatever you want, but be sure it ends with ".]" as it will be used to form a rooted logical name. -- ________________________________________ Craig A.
