Its a sunny Saturday morning, and my wife and I turn into a residential neighborhood of Santa Rosa, California the only sign of commerce is a beleaguered shopping mall a few hundred feet away. I glance down at my GPS to make sure this is where we want to be and in doing so I almost pass my destination. There it is tucked away to the left, sandwiched between two homes: Worth our Weight (W.O.W)

As human beings we all want to be happy and free from misery we have learned that the key to happiness is inner peace.

ActivePerl is a free Windows Perl distribution provided by ActiveState.

Installation

ActivePerl 5.12

PERL_PATH adds perl to the Windows path. PERL_EXT associates perl with .pl files. See the documentation in the related links for more details.

<package
  id="activeperl"
  name="Active Perl"
  revision="%version%"
  priority="50">

  <variable name="version" value="5.12.1" />

  <check
    type="uninstall"
    condition="exists"
    path="ActivePerl %version% Build 1201" />

  <install cmd='msiexec /qn /i "%SOFTWARE%\apps\activeperl\ActivePerl-%version%.1201-MSWin32-x86-292674.msi" PERL_PATH=Yes PERL_EXT=Yes' />
  <upgrade cmd='msiexec /qn /i "%SOFTWARE%\apps\activeperl\ActivePerl-%version%.1201-MSWin32-x86-292674.msi" PERL_PATH=Yes PERL_EXT=Yes' />
  <remove cmd='msiexec /qn /x {7D5E1317-71E3-41A9-8755-98F5EC92D510}' />
</package>

ActivePerl 5.10

<package id="perl" name="ActiveState Perl" revision="2" priority="800" reboot="false">

<check type='uninstall' condition='exists' path='ActivePerl 5.10.0 Build 1003' />
<install cmd='msiexec /qn /i  %SOFTWARE%\perl\ActivePerl-5.10.0.1003-MSWin32-x86-285500.msi PERL_PATH=Yes PERL_EXT=Yes' />
<upgrade cmd='msiexec /qn /i %SOFTWARE%\perl\ActivePerl-5.10.0.1003-MSWin32-x86-285500.msi PERL_PATH=Yes PERL_EXT=Yes' />
<remove cmd='msiexec /qn /x {061CE7E5-0115-4BB6-8381-47C602B98C7D}' />
</package>

Installing Modules

To install modules from a local repository (as opposed to the Activestate repository)

 SET LOCALPACKAGEREP=\\server\share
 ppm rep add "Local" %LOCALPACKAGEREP%
 ppm install %LOCALPACKAGEREP%\net-ip\Win32-FileOp.ppd

Each ppd file contains a reference to a tar.gz file that is usally kept in the same folder. Just make sure that you have all the dependancies for the modules (again, in the ppd file)
