Maybe this can help other people too, so I'll post question I got in PM.
Quote:
THanks for the help. I went to install
and got a "PPM gives me a 401 Authorization Required" .
is there a way around this, or an alternative place to get the package?
Apparently you need a 'business edition license" for perl, what - the - fuck

I'm not expert with this stuff, perl, mysql, etc, just trial and error for a few years. I'll try to help though.
Authorization Required sounds like you need to do it in adminstration mode. Try to go into command line with admin mode.
Go to Start->Run
Type "command" (But don't hit enter)
See the Command Shortcut appear, right click on it, and then select "Run as Administrator". This should give you the permissions.
You DONT need the business edition license. Just regular perl, and I think the current version they use right now is 5.12? They have used 5.10, 5.12, and 5.14 in the past, and you NEED to use the correct version for what the source code is using. In the case they changed version number, can ask in the forum then.
Also, I think I read some where they had to the perl files from the source code, so I'm not sure if they swapped it out with business version or if you need to download your own version.
