Each time I try to run a perl script (or perl) I get the following error:
/bin/perl.exe: error while loading shared libraries: ?: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
(BTW, I have a ton of stuff I've installed from CPAN including Net::Twitter, Moose, and an updated version of the 'cpan' command, itself.)
'cygcheck' seems to think that all the "stuff" that I identify as perl-related is hunky dory.
Note: All I want to do now is get Perl running, I'll worry about the Cygwin ports issues described below, later. I only describe them to show how I got into this predicament.
This problem started when several consecutive attempts to run 'setup' against the Cygwin Ports server failed at various different points -- using the directions given at http://cygwinports.org/:
* In the first three attempts I tried running: > the command given at the Cygwin ports web site: = cygstart -- .../setup.exe -K \ http://cygwinports.org/ports.gpg = from a bash script. (I assumed the 'cygstart' "preamble" implied that this was supposed to be run from Cygwin, no?) > the first try failed early on. > the second one failed at a C header file, saying it was busy > the third failed at the exact same place * I then tried running: > ...\setup.exe -K \ http://cygwinports.org/ports.gpg > from a '.bat' file from a 'cmd.exe' window > this failed at least three times, at the same place if I selected the same packages, but not at the same place as with the shell script. However, in all probability, I did not have the same packages selected for the 'cmd.exe' runs as the 'bash' runs. * I then tried running the setup command ('...\setup.exe -K http://cygwinports.org/ports.gpg) from a quick launch shortcut. Here, the results were never successful, stopping at a different place each time.
At this point, I started to do some testing to see if my configuration was working. I discovered that several regular Cygwin apps were broken, and I attempted to fix these by rerunning the standard setup against a single standard Cygwin setup server, reinstalling the broken apps, trying, on different runs at least three different servers. I seem to have gotten everything fixed except 'perl'.
I then ran a reinstall off all the perl stuff using a standard Cygwin setup server, and the Cygwin ports server, and I was successful fixing 'perl' (at least as reported by "cygcheck."
I then tried running 'rebaseall' from dash, with all Cygwin process "extinguished". The 'rebaseall' run failed, and the perl shared library problem persists.
My AV software is Kaspersky. I have it set to exclude mucking with Cygwin directories, and it always has informed me (in the past) when it's intervening with anything. I believe I'm not using any other potential BLODAs.
