#4 Perl 5.8 - Debug

[Srikanth]

I have upgraded my Perl from 5.6 to 5.8. If I try to debug
a script in Open Perl IDE, it displays the following error:

No DB::DB routine defined at c:/Perl/lib/Cwd.pm line 151.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at c:/Perl/lib/Cwd.pm
line 151.
Compilation failed in require at
D:\srikanth\download\openperl/perl5db.pl line 39.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at
D:\srikanth\download\openperl/perl5db.pl line 39.
Compilation failed in require.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted.

Please help me to solve this.

Thanks
Srikanth

I have the exact same problem, it will not even compile
HelloWorld. Additional info:

With a freshly installed Open Perl IDE 1.0, I load up the
HelloWorld.pl that comes in the distribution. I select Project-
>Compile, and I get the following error output:

No DB::DB routine defined at C:/Perl/lib/Cwd.pm line 151.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at C:/Perl/lib/Cwd.pm line
151.
Compilation failed in require at perl5db.pl line 39.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at perl5db.pl line 39.
Compilation failed in require.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted.

My Perl is ActiveState 5.8, output of 'perl -V' below:

Hi. I am facing the same problem. I am using IndigoPerl (perl 5.
8.0). When trying to compile HelloWorld.pl, it gives me the
error message:
No DB::DB routine defined at D:/indigoperl/perl/lib/Cwd.pm line
151.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at D:/indigoperl/perl/lib/Cwd.
pm line 151.
Compilation failed in require at perl5db.pl line 39.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at perl5db.pl line 39.
Compilation failed in require.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted.

After that when I try to close the IDE, it remains in the
taskbar until I force it to close with the task manager.
Probably for the same reason I have no luck with debugging.
