I get this error:

[Quest] WARNING: error compiling quest file quests/templates/player.pl: Perl run
time error: Undefined subroutine &main::eval_file called.

I have searched the forums up and down searching for a fix and it seemed that everything was inconclusive. Has anyone figured out a definite fix? I've tried just about every suggestion so far.

Welcome to the EQemu forums RichardoX! Do you have Perl 5.8.8 installed?

Just to let everyone know, I solved this issue on my side. This is what I did.

Uninstalled ActiveState Perl 5.8.8.822 and deleted c:\perl\.
I reinstalled it and installed IO-stringy only.
*ppm install io-stringy in command prompt after install.
Rather than downloading the pre-compiled binaries available on the wiki tutorial, I used a newer build of the source. After that, it worked perfectly.

I hope everyone else has the same luck that I did.
