It looks as though the download of the Perl .MSI file succeeded but the attempt to copy it to your %TEMP% directory failed (with the access violation), so that when the install-fq-mods script trued to run it it wasn't there, producing the "could not open" error you displayed. You say you can "see the file it is looking for", by which you presumably mean the PERL.MSI file in the %TEMP% directory. What is the file size? Does it look plausible for the installer of a large package? You could try running the .MSI file from the command line. If that succeeds, then running install-fq-mods ought to mean it will find Perl already present and proceed to the rest of its work. BTW it is regarded as helpful to state the OS you are running on (clearly Windows, but Win10Home? Win10Pro?) and which version of Gnucash (presumably 4.4 for a new install). _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
