Error Message -Malformed PERLLIB_PREFIX

Newbie

OK. I've installed perl on my pc but when I try to run a perl script i get the error...

Malformed PERLLIB_PREFIX.

My environment is set to.. PERLLIB_PREFIX=G:\apps\perl5\lib\5.8.0

So any idea what I might have done wrong or how to overcome this problem?

About halfway down is a paragraph on this error.

It appears that the PERLLIB_PREFIX environment variable needs to contain at least two parameters. Given that the docs say it applies only to OS/2, the fact that its set at all could also be an issue.
