I am evaluating PerlApp and have gotten most of the GUIs to work. However, I am trying out the PerlMSI to see if I can create a MSI package and I keep getting error messages.

I have installed Perl on my D: drive. I can run Perl scripts just fine. But I keep getting error messages about not having the PerlMSI Install.pm and/or Util.pm files in the @INC list.

Here is the message I get:

You don't seem to have the PerlMSI library in your @INC path. Please
add it either to the PERL5LIB environment variable, or specify it with
the perl -I commandline option. The default installation directory
for PerlMSI is something like:

C:\Program Files\ActiveState Perl Dev Kit 7.0\lib

BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at ScriptGenerator.pl line 20.
Compilation failed in require at D:\Program Files\ActiveState Perl Dev Kit 7.1\Samples\PerlMSI\Install_Wizard\msiwiz.pl line 3.

I have played with the "use lib" option in the ScriptGenerator.pl script in the Samples\PerlMSI\Install_Wizard directory. But despite my efforts I can't get it to build an executable output.

Note that, even though I have gotten it to generate the script to go to the OUTPUT directory, I can't run the output because it also has an @INC error.

Any suggestions will be appreciated.
