How can I run Bugzilla on Windows with Strawberry Perl?

Tuesday, April 23, 2019

I've been at it for 3 days now, and run into, usually, a Storage.pm problem with the "Binary image v18.86 being greater than 2.7".

I've tried different Bugzilla's: 3.0.8, 3.2.4, 3.4rc1.

Next I'll be trying different Perl's, (using 5.10.0.4 portable right now),

I don't want to go to an older version of MySQL (5.1.36-community), so next I'll try PostgreSQL 8.4.

I'll update as I go. I wanted to ask here, since these are some common platforms, and perhaps someone has it working.

P.S.: Windows XP, Abyss Web Server X1 (though I can't even run perl check-setup.pl yet)

UPDATE: A chronicle of my (so far) fruitless journey.
