Re^2: Install Module issue

If Dynaloader is complaining about the version number as I suspected, is there not a way of specifying the version number to be used for the module that you are calling.
Tried looking this idea up and the code I could find went along these lines,

use BerkeleyDB 0.22;

But this failed to work, it still gave exactly the same error message.
Can I specifically state which version of the Perl module to use?
Cheers

Can I specifically state which version of the Perl module to use? No - the first BerkeleyDB.pm that gets found, gets loaded. If that's not the BerkeleyDB.pm that you want then you'd need to re-arrange the order in which the directories are being searched, so that the one you want to load does get found first. But that's all beside the point anyway - things are broken and need to be fixed. Version 0.31 of BerkeleyDB.pm is being loaded, but the BerleleyDB.dll that gets loaded is version 0.22. I would try uninstalling BerkeleyDB by running `ppm remove BerkeleyDB` and re-installing by running `ppm install BerkeleyDB`. If that doesn't take care of the mismatch then you might have to look at manually removing the BerkeleyDB installation(s) before re-installing it. Cheers, Rob	[reply] [d/l] [select]
