Brian, I usually don't have problems with perl installs, unless one is trying to copy the code from one machine to another. Look at this site: http://www.perl.com/pub They have both binary and scr code, I checked the binary for Solarais, it's version 8 so I would do a source code install. It usually only takes an .5 hour for the source install. Just follow the instructions, if your unsure of a selection, pick the default.
