:icon2: Please Help �Build failure Problem

I am using Borland c++BuilerX 1.5 for developing a series 60 application using Symbian C++. For the emulator I was using Series 60 Sdk 2.0 For Symbian Os Supporting Borland C++Builder and UIQ. It was working very well. After a certain period I face problem on the Compilation and Build. I reinstall everything and tried as I did and succeed previously; but same problem still exists. Now I can�t proceed on the development. The following are the Build error messages shown in the box.

Compile Errors
bldmake -v bldfiles
� 'perl' is not recognized as an internal or external command,

abld -v export
� 'abld' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
� External process exited with error code : 1

� External process exited with error code : 1

abld -w build WINSB UDEB
� 'abld' is not recognized as an internal or external command,

How can I get it solved? Please Help me.

Thank You in advance.

Sounds like Perl is no longer installed, or no longer on the PATH (what does the command "perl -v" display if you execute it from the command prompt?).

If it isn't installed, you can download and reinstall it from http://www.activestate.com/

Pls Hlp me on Build failure

Thank you; I get Active Perl installed and the problem solved now. Now the Compile and Build problems message looks like the following. It is related to 'abld". To be frank, I don't even know about 'abld' and how to get it corrected as I am a starter with Symbian C++. How can I check for correcting environment variables for it? Or How can I get it solved?

The Failure Message follows:

bldmake -v bldfiles
abld -v export
� 'abld' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
�External process exited with error code : 1
abld -v makefile WINSB
