+//We noticed the following symptom only once in the 3 test cases so far. It has not occurred in the remaining 2 test cases, so although we document its solution here, you may not need to carry out the
+instructions for this solution until you actual notice the problem (the symptom) described here.//
-. **SYMPTOM:** Unable to successfully and completely run certain perl scripts successfully such as ''perl -S pluginfo.pl -describeall'', despite setting up the Greenstone environment by running gs3-setup.\\ As a result, GLI may fail to launch properly.

      - Use the Windows file explorer to go to ''perllib/cpan/Encode'' (which in a GS3 installation is located within its ''gs2build'' subfolder). Then rename the existing ''Locale.pm'' file to ''Locale.pm.old'', then you'll finally be able to rename the ''Locale.pm.forLocaleIssue'' file to ''Locale.pm'' and rename ''Alias.pm.forLocaleIssue'' to ''Alias.pm''.
      - Use a text editor to open up ''perllib/plugins/DirectoryPlugin.pm'' (in a GS3 installation, this is located withing GS3's ''gs2build'' subfolder). Somewhere near the top of this file, find the line that says:<code>#use Encode::Alias;</code>\\ and check out the ''#'' sign at the start of that line so that you get<code>use Encode::Alias;</code>\\ Then save the file with this change.
