Server Start Up Error

Thanks Zag,

Your solution got rid of the error I was encountering with Rev408.

I am happy to confirm that EQEmu Rev423_win binaries work with Perl 5.10.0 build 1005.

Many thanks again

Glad to see it is working.

Seems the official compiles forgot to upgrade to Perl 5.10 before compiling the Windows binaries you had. Thus giving you that error.

The binaries on SVN are meant to work with 5.8 and do so just fine, I just tried it out.

I was having a lot of trouble with this too on rev408. I had perl 5.8.8.822 installed originally and was getting this error. Then when tried 5.10.1001 and 1004 I got the can't find perl58.dll error. In the end I found that Perl version 5.8.9.825 worked perfectly so if anyone is still having issues I'd try that version of 5.8

Thanks for the info. It seems slightly older versions of 5.8 do not work properly with the SVN compiles.

Compiling with the Windows VC9 solution however does need Perl 5.10 to compile properly as it looks for a 510 dll file while compiling.
