After a couple more days of searching, I'm not sure anything can be done about this compile error.

Can anyone recommend a different guide that doesn't involve compiling? I know there are several, I just don't know which are reliable anymore. I tried two different ones I found on this site, but no matter how careful I was, it just didn't work. I've set up a server a couple of years ago and I don't remember it being this difficult. Is it because I'm on a 64-bit system?

Well, I think it all depends on exactly what all you have installed. Different versions of VS will need to use different serverX.sln files. And different ones may allow different versions of mysql and perl.

If you want one to work for sure, you should try to use the exact versions of perl, mysql and VS that are specified. For Windows, I still use VS2008, and have no problems with it as long as I use the right versions of perl and mysql.

I haven't messed with the newer build stuff, as I have seen a lot of issues reported and I don't see many benefits from making the upgrades. Though, Secrets said that VS2011 supposedly makes a compile that will process some things quicker.

Thank you Trevius! Yes, I am using the newest 64 bit versions of all programs plus VS 2010. I suppose I should just dig around the net and see if I can find the older versions of those programs instead of trying to mess with this. Thank you for the reply.
