Having troubles getting the Perl add-on to start with the new version of XAMPP (1.5.0-pl1). I have installed the add-on successfuly but upon running setup_xampp.bat I get this error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: file_put_contents() in
C:\apachefriends\xampp\install\install.php on line 83

How did you get it installed at all? i tried the perl addon but it says my xampp is too old (its 1.5 and not 1.4.. weird)

I am having the same problem. My error says "Apache Version 2.0.54 not found! Need XAMPP 1.4.15 or higher."

I noticed that next to the download for the Perl Addon, it says, "Perl 5.8.7 (1.4.16)." Does this mean that you must have version 1.4.16? I have version 1.50-pl1. Do I have to start over again with 1.4.16?

I decided to get experimental, so I downloaded the ZIP version of the Perl Addon and extracted the contents into my root directory. It seems to have installed correctly, but now I get an error when starting Apache that says, "Cannot load /xampp/perl/bin/perl58.dll into server: The specified module could not be found."

I then searched for the file and found it right where it should be. I modified the perl.conf file and changed the path to d:/xampp/xampp/perl/bin/perl58.dll, and the error went away.

I now have a new error which says, "(OS 10048)Only one usage of each socket address (protocol/network address/port) is normally permitted. : make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:443 no listening sockets available, shutting down. Unable to open logs."

Unfortunately, this error doesn't tell me which file is causing this error, so I don't know what step to take next. Can anybody help?

Afaik SSL is using Port 443. More I dont have to say

Well, I was in a hurry to get this working, so I ended up downloading and installing the 1.4.16 release. Everything worked great on the first try.

Thanks anyways for your help!
