If you don't need the perl interface, then execute the command "make distclean", set the environment variable PERL to the empty string, and start-over with the "configure" script. If, however, you do need the "perl" interface, then send me the output from the command "perl -V". > Sean Regards, Steve Emmerson Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: ZYY-472715 Department: Support UDUNITS Priority: Normal Status: Closed
