Hi, I'm looking for a 2012 updated guide on how to start a server up.

[Jule]

The Guide relates to specific Versions and I can't find those at
the named URLs:

---------------------------------------------------
For Perl, go here - (I use 5.1 - 1007 version)
http://www.activestate.com/activeperl/downloads

For MySQL, go here - (scroll down the page to see downloads,I use 5.1.54 version)
http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/5.1.html
---------------------------------------------------

Do newer Versions work? Can find only 5.14.2.1205 Perl there and
a 5.1.61 MYSQL.

I tried the old Guides with 5.0 sql and perl 5.10.0.1004 but couldn't get
it running. Since I'm a total noob with this stuff I really want to follow
a Guide point by point and so I don't want to start with the wrong
Versions. I already installed and deinstalled several different Versions from perl and wanna do it right this time.

Win XP 32bit
MySQL 5.1.60 Essentials
Perl 5.12 (I had to change the two pragma lines that said perl510.lib to perl512.lib)
Zlib 1.2.5

Any other working combinations would be appreciated. I have not tried MySQL 5.5 or Perl 5.14 on 32bit yet.

Any Info?
