I've installed the GD library (2.3.1) on Active Perl 5.8.8 and have
recived this error:

GD object version 2.31 does not match $GD::VERSION 2.34 at
C:/Perl/lib/DynaLoader.pm line 253

I used ppm3 to install from the UofW repository.

what can i do?

Give us more info :-)

Can you provide the output of the ppm3 install ?

Something is screwed, and it's difficult to be more precise from the info
you've provided. It seems that version 2.34 of GD.pm is being found, but
version 2.31 of the compiled component (dll) is also being found ... and
that just won't work.

The ppm repository has version 2.31. Where is that version 2.34 of GD being
found ?

What does the following produce:
perl -MGD -e "print $GD::VERSION"

If that runs ok without producing the error you reported above, then we
probably need to see a small script that demonstrates the problem.

Also what do you get with:
perl -e "print $ActivePerl::VERSION"

Maybe a 'ppm3 remove GD' followed by another 'ppm3 install GD' would fix the
problem.

Cheers,
Rob

....and you can use bribes.org as it usually is the most up-to-date

ppm install http://www.bribes.org/perl/ppm/GD.ppd
