Hello All, I hope someone can give me a light on this. I’m having an issue migrating my x86 system (Apache and ModPerl mainly) to an x64 Windows server, where I’m trying to use Apache 2.2 and Perl 5.12 both 64 bits.
The following code, executed on the same machine (with Windows 7 x64) but using ActiveState Perl 5.12 x86 works well, but when using ActiveState Perl 5.12 x64 it doesn’t work: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- use strict; use warnings; use Win32::OLE; my $obj = new Win32::OLE 'GeoIPCOMex.GeoIPex'; if (defined $obj) { # It works print ref($obj)."\n"; } else { # It didn't work print "Error loading object: ".Win32::OLE->LastError."\n"; } ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- When trying it over Perl 5.12 x86, it prints (as expected): Win32::OLE But when trying it over Perl 5.12 x64, it prints: Error loading object: Win32::OLE(0.1709) error 0x80040154: "Clase no registrada" (spanish for "Class not registered") Of course, the class IS registered as you can see on the 32 bit Perl execution. I'm guessing this has to do with 32 bit and 64 bit DLLs and that Win32::OLE works with 32 or 64 bit registrations/DLLs accordingly to whether you are using a 32 or 64 bit version of Perl. But, I'm just guessing and I'm not really sure about what the problem is or how to solve it. Does any one know the real reason for this to fail over Perl x64 and how to solve it? Thanks in advance for any comment!
