I think you meant
perl not pear.
oops!
XAMPP 1.6.6a = Apache 2.2.8You should be downloading and installing the
xampp-win32-perl-addon-5.8.8-2.2.8.zip not the 5.7 version.
From the readme:
Add-on Perl 5.8.8 Apache 2.2.8
For XAMPP with Apache 2.2.8 (XAMPP 1.6.x)To fix, (uninstall) delete the perl folder and the 2 perl related files in the
xampp\apache\conf\extra folder then install afresh with the version mentioned above by extracting the files from the zip file to xampp\perl, follow the install instructions and see how that version performs.

That looks fine.
In your
xampp\apache\conf\extra folder you should have 2 perl related files -
perl.conf and
startup.pl - check they are there after installing the addon and check the line in the httpd.conf file is not commented out (
it should not have a # at the start of the line that gives the include path to the perl.conf file) - see my other post how the line should look.
*** Please let the forum know if the above finally solves your perl issue. ***
Thanks.
