Perl_hv_common_key_len Issue with Rev703:

[GnarmustDie]

I've got the same problems with Vista. I tried similar steps to the first poster but ran out of time this morning. I was planning on going to perl 5.10 as you suggest since I saw a few people running that in another post. Will try possibly tonight but probably tomorrow morning and see if I can get it to work.

[GnarmustDie]

Perl 5.10 doesn't work. It has perl510.dll instead of perl58.dll. I have to leave, unfortunately, but I'll try the last rev of perl 5.8 and see if that works: ActivePerl-5.8.9.826-MSWin32-x86-290470.msi.

I'll try later on this evening (hopefully) and post the results.

I was able to get 5.8.9.826 to work for me. I adjusted the PATH environment variable myself, and would just manually purge all contents of the directory before reloading. I wouldn't allow the MSI to add to the path; so that way I was able to uninstall/reinstall without rebooting.

When I first ran into this error with my server, I found that upgrading to 826 and then reinstalling the DBI,DBD-mysql, and IO-stringy fixed it. It wouldn't work properly until I made sure to reload those through a command prompt with ppm install.

Wonderful idea, thanks, Weldarr. I know that with the past few versions of working Perl, doing those manually wasn't necessary, I hadn't thought to try.

How did you fix this? I am getting the same error...
