If you have installed ActivePerl, then the missing section you cite below can be found in the Availability & Install subsection of the ActivePerl FAQ section of the HTML documentation installed on your local drive.
 
However, I don't think you'll find the answer to your question there.
 
The warning message "Use of uninitialized value at ..." is generated by the -w switch on the perl command, or the "use warnings;" directive for Perl versions >5.6.
 
So, if your script does not begin with "#! perl -w" or "use warnings;", and you see the warning in Linux but not in WinNT, then perhaps you have the PERL5OPT environmental variable defined as "-w" in Linunx but not in WinNT.

Subject: Missing FAQ link: How can I customize my installation of ActivePerl?

I was hoping to find answer in FAQ, but link is missing:
I found:
(1) main FAQ page (http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Reference/Products/ActivePerl/faq/ActivePerl-faq.html)
(2) clicked to page AcrivePerl-faq1: Availability and Installation FAQ,
(3) now here is a link named How can I customize my installation of ActivePerl? But link is poiting nowhere. Looks to me like whole bunch of answers is missing.

Strange, strange...

So please can somebody advice me where this info available?

My question is rather basic: we have ActiveState perl installed on Linux, and i am developing on ma local WinNT before copying my scpripts to Linux. Linux settings are fine and script fails when uninitialized value is used. (Error message is: Use of uninitialized value at ...).
I would like to setup my WinNT perl to check these errors before I'll submit script to Linux server, as Linux perl does.
Please advise how to do it, or where complete documentation lives....

Thank you.

Peter Masiar
