Default Need help with the Windows Set Up Server Guide

Hey, I just started trying to set up a new server using the latest Windows Server Set up guide and I ran into a bit of a problem.

I followed the instructions step by step.
I created folders:
C:\EQ
C:\EQ\Installs
C:\EQ\EQEmuServer
C:\EQ\EQEmuServer\shared
C:\EQ\SQL
C:\EQ\Source

I downloaded:
ActivePerl-5.12.3.1204-MSWin32-x86-294330
mysql-5.1.68-win32
VS2012_WDX_ENU
HeidiSQL_7.0_Setup
TortoisesSVN-1.7.11.23600-x64-svn-1.7.78
Git-1.8.2-preview20130201
npp.6.3.Installer
cmake-2.8.10.2-win32-x86
into the c:\EQ\Installs folder

Installed Active State Perl
Installed to c:\Perl then took defaults, rebooted.
Opened an elevated command prompt and typed the following (with the results):

c:\windows\system32>ppm install DBI (completed successfully)
C:\windows\system32>ppm install IO-stringy
Downloading IO-stringy-2.110...redirect
Downloading IO-stringy-2.110...failed 401 Authorization Required.
ppm install failed: 401 Authorization Required

not sure what happened, how do I proceed?

I am running Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit OS.

Thanks,

TNBadBoy

looks like activestate made modules for the version of perl the emulator uses require a business edition license to access via ppm recently.

Default Trying to move forward

Ok, so if that is the case, then how can I continue with the setup? Is there another version of active perl that will work?

try this:

1) run 'cpan' from a command prompt
2) execute 'upgrade cpan' from the cpan prompt
3) execute 'install IO::Stringy' from the cpan prompt

no, there isn't another version of active perl that will work, but hopefully you can install the module via cpan.

Default Still trying

So after taking your advice, I got the following:

Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7601]
Copyright (c) 2009 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

C:\Windows\system32>cpan

It looks like you don't have a C compiler and make utility installed. Trying
to install dmake and the MinGW gcc compiler using the Perl Package Manager.
This may take a a few minutes...

It looks like the installation of dmake and MinGW has failed. You will not be
able to run Makefile commands or compile C extension code. Please check your
internet connection and your proxy settings!

you'll have to use an alternate repository then.

this should work:

ppm install http://www.bribes.org/perl/ppm/IO-stringy.ppd

You still need Perl. You do not (and have not for a while by looking at the code) needed the packages installed.
