I'm trying to use the following wsdl3perl command on my windows box with perl 10 against a very complex wsdl file <b> C:\>C:\Perl100\site\bin\wsdl2perl.bat -b file://c:/imi/xsd/montary file://C:/imi/xsd/com/service/pr +ovider/monetary/Transaction.wsdl </b> After running the above command a lot output gets generated to the screen but I always end up with the same error message and no code gets generated. <b> C:/Perl100/site/lib/SOAP/WSDL/Generator/Template/XSD\complexType.tt mkdir file://c:/: Invalid argument; The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect at C:/Perl100/site/lib/SOAP/WSDL/ Base.pm line 54 </b> I've tried doing things like changing forward slashes to back slashes, verifying the directory existed, and tried not using the -b option but nothing seems to work. Can anybody explain why I keep getting this error message?
