Here is it setup procedure again:
I'm a Perl novice, but here's what works for me on Windows XP:
1. Install ActivePerl from
http://www.activestate.com/products/activeperl/
2. Start the ActivePerl Package Manager (ppm3.bat) and run the
following commands:
install dbi
install dbd-sqlite2
install time-modules
install config-ini
install text-glob
install xml-sax-expat
3. Then create or edit /{path to perl
installation}/site/lib/XML/SAX/ParserDetails.ini so that it includes:
[XML::SAX::Expat]
http://xml.org/sax/features/namespaces = 1
http://xml.org/sax/features/validation = 1
http://xml.org/sax/features/external-general-entities = 1
http://xml.org/sax/features/external-parameter-entities = 1
4. Start a command line with the working folder of the vss2svn.pl
script 5. Make sure you have the perl/bin path in your local PATH
variable 6. Run the script by calling vss2svn.pl plus all of the
parameters
I am getting errors with the above instructions setting up ActivePerl.
I am trying to use a patch that was supplied to the vss2svn perl script,
but have never set up perl before. Prior testing was with the .exe
version only.
All works fine until I get to the xml-sax-expat step. That consistently
fails saying:
ERROR: File conflict for 'C:/Perl/html/site/lib/XML/SAX/Base.html'.
The package XML-SAX has already installed a file that package
XML-SAX-Base
wants to install.
Am I using the correct sequence / correct instructions? I am using
version 5.8.8.820 of ActivePerl which is loading version 4.01 of PPM.
I've never seen such an error using PPM, but I've never used a 4.x
version. Maybe it has stronger default checking for files overwriting
each other... does "ppm help" list an option for disabling that checking?
Otherwise, maybe you should try ActivePerl 5.8.6 or 5.8.7, since those
use PPM 3.
