Quests not working

[Utau]

Hi guys .. I've searched and searched and not found a solution to my problem.

I have installed my own server and everything works fine as far as I can tell except quests.

I have perl 5.8.4 installed as from the searches this looked like the most accepted version. I have inserted the 4 files into my \plugins directory (for the record that folder was empty and i thought that would do the trick) but didnt.

I get no response from any npc when hailing or using "known" text that triggers the event for the quest.

I am a programmer and am very familiar with sql .. not so much with perl (vb background) .. any help would be greatly appreciated.
