Encounter shared memory error when running createlang command!

Hi, List,

 Because my previous mail contains some Chinese character, now I modified
it, the whole problem is described as below:

 I need to create language Pl/Perl. I have checked all dependencies of
plperl.dll and all is ok.

 Next:

D:\Program Files\Postgresql\bin>createlang -U postgres -e plperl example
(example is my dbname)

Password:

SELECT oid FROM pg_catalog.pg_language WHERE lanname = 'plperl';

CREATE LANGUAGE "plperl";

createlang: language installation failed: server closed the connection
unexpectedly

        This probably means the server terminated abnormally

        before or while processing the request.



And pg_log is :

2009-09-24 10:50:55 HKT LOG:  loaded library
"$libdir/plugins/plugin_debugger.dll"

2009-09-24 10:50:59 HKT LOG:  loaded library
"$libdir/plugins/plugin_debugger.dll"

Substitution pattern not terminated at line 1.

2009-09-24 10:51:01 HKT LOG:  Server process (PID 1640) exited, exit code
255

2009-09-24 10:51:01 HKT LOG:  terminating any other active server processes

2009-09-24 10:51:01 HKT LOG:  all server processes terminated;
reinitializing

2009-09-24 10:51:02 HKT FATAL:  pre-existing shared memory block is still in
use

2009-09-24 10:51:02 HKT HINT:  Check if there are any old server processes
still running, and terminate them.



Then unsurprised, I found pgsql-8.3 service has stopped. But then I can
start up it successfully.

Thank you for any advice in advance.

I have been kept on it for two days..

have you installed perl?   I believe the plperl in postgres on Windows
is dependent on activeperl.

Thank you for your reminding.
Before running createlang script, ActivePerl 5.8.9 has been installed
because of the dependency of plperl.dll on perl58.dll.

I'm very suspicious of this error message.  "Substitution pattern not
terminated at line 1" sounds like an error message that is being
generated *by Perl*.  I don't see that phrase anywhere in the
PostgreSQL sources.  If that's true, that means that Perl is getting
loaded, but then immediately dying when it tries to compile
something-or-other that has a bad regular expression in there.  Could
there be something wrong with your Perl installation?  Can you launch
Perl from outside PostgreSQL OK?

Another possibility is that some of the Perl code that PL/perl tries
to execute during the load of Perl is not working for some reason.
What version of Perl do you have on your system?  What happens if you
try to load plperlu?

Thank you so much for your kind reply.
Your analysis sounds very reasonable. I checked my Perl version, it is "Perl 5.8.9 Build 826" which is the latest
versionin the series of 5.8.*.  
The whole process of installation of Perl goes well without any something wrong. And I can run Perl command out of
Postgresqlvery well. So is this Perl version not compatible with Postgresql 8.3.7? And may I configure Perl somewhere
orsomething? When Perl is loaded, what will be executed by it? 
"Substitution pattern not terminated at line 1." Souds like one regular expression. But I can not determine what will
beexecuted by Perl.

Did you try loading plperlu?

Well, that's a normal message when something crashes. The question is
what's making it crash.  Have you tried removing plugin_debugger.dll
from the equation?  Have you tried a fresh PostgreSQL install?
Something's obviously different in your installation than elsewhere.
