I am trying to run the PerlInstaller script that can be unpacked from the Windows installer. When I run it I seem to have problems compiling the file c:\Perl\bin\config.pl. I receive the following error: System starts here syntax error at C:/Perl/lib/File/Basename.pm line 213, near "C:" syntax error at C:/Perl/lib/File/Basename.pm line 218, near "C:" syntax error at C:/Perl/lib/File/Basename.pm line 220, near "C:" No such class C at C:/Perl/lib/File/Basename.pm line 281, near "my C" syntax error at C:/Perl/lib/File/Basename.pm line 281, near "my C:" syntax error at C:/Perl/lib/File/Basename.pm line 285, near "C:" syntax error at C:/Perl/lib/File/Basename.pm line 288, near "C:" syntax error at C:/Perl/lib/File/Basename.pm line 291, near "C:" Global symbol "$type" requires explicit package name at C:/Perl/lib/File/Basename.pm line 293.
