I used to have Activestate and then installed cygwin. Can I maybe
de-install
cygwin's perl(if so, how) or is that not the problem?

The only thing I really need from cygwin for this is acces to grace (which
in
turn needs a X-server)


If you can post a simple test case, others here might be able to help you
(i.e. <http://cygwin.com/problems.html>).

The problem is that I was getting no such problems before installing cygwin
and no, this is not a simple testcase, it's something I get from a complex
script
doing DBI queries; apparently the crash occurs when reading the query rows
and writing to a hash. I also get an error
kgefec: fatal error 0
kgepop: no error frame to pop ro for error 0
I did a google search and though I did not find the exact same error, some posts indicated that this is a cygwin perl- Activestate perl problem
; Since the modules I installed(e.g. DBI) with activestate seem to work
I thought this means the activestate perl is the one actually running


Don't mix and match perl modules.  If you're using Cygwin's perl, use modules
built and be sure _not_ to use any ActiveState Perl modules and vice-versa.


Anyway, can I deinstall cygwin perl without affecting anything else?


Yes, with the exception of any other Cygwin package depending on Perl that
you've installed.  There aren't many of these though.
