I have a question about Active State Perl Install folders on Windows.
Currenly they are installed below folders under .
is my account folder.
I think because install was executed under folder.
I would like to install Perl on another folder like D:\Perl.
If I try to install on D:\Perl, then Perl will be install under D:\Perl folder?
Also do I need to uninstall current installed Perl first ?
Current installed folders:
C:\Users<user name>\AppData\Local\activestate
C:\Users<user name>\AppData\Roaming\cli-release
The runtime that is installed in your AppData folder is only accessible by you, and will only work after you use the “state shell” command to make it active.
To understand how you can put a runtime elsewhere, please see the documentation for the "state checkout’’ command. There is an option that controls where the project files go, and a flag that controls where the runtime will be installed. Even if you put the runtime in D:\Perl, a user will need to run a state shell command with the appropriate control files in order to make the runtime available. This is not like the old MSI installers.
–runtime-path is the flag to set if you want to put the Perl runtime in D:\Perl.
The location of the control file is specified by the option,
Currently, I use Windows Server 2019.
I understand the way to install the specified folder using “state checkout” command and option.
In case of using Perl from an another login user, Do I need to run some state command ?
Or can I just set the System Environment Variables Path of Perl install folder on Windows Server ?
