Need help starting a new server.

These are some of the first few errors

I decided to completely start over today on trying to setup a server. I followed the guides listed above, and like Sanyan, I am having building errors in C++. I did the CMake steps with no problems at all. When I get to where I have to open the solution and build it is where the problems lay. After I click build it starts to compile everything. When it is done compiling there are 369 errors. They all seem to have something to do with perl (see the error messages that Sanayan posted for examples.

What do now?

most people who say they are following the guides and have perl errors aren't following the guides, as they generally deal with older versions of perl.

use 5.12.3 for 32 bit operating systems.
use 5.14.2 for 64 bit operating systems.
