Need help installing Net::SSLeay

Dallas TX Member
the instructions i've found for installing Net::SSLeay on a win32 platform are pretty poor. i have no experience with compiling except failure 
. could anyone help? i have already installed a pre-compiled version openssl, and i also already have active perl installed and working.

It should pull down all the dependencies needed and automatically install the module.
i'm still having issues. i figured out how to properly install this stuff, but i got another error. then i installed the cpan module, and got Net::SSLeay to start installing, then i got the same error that a flag for the compiler is invalid. all the relevent output is below...

how do i fix this little flag error?
I am facing the same issue. The error message informs that you need to have OpenSSL installed. ReadMe file says OpenSSL is not working with Win XP yet.I guess you might want to check out installing OpenSSL.
