Mike,
I don't know whether offering Perl through WebPI is a feasible solution in the future release, I will let somebody else comment on this.
However, in the meantime, you can get by by creating your custom feed that will install and configure Perl properly. You can read this article on how to do it: Web PI Extensibility: Custom Feeds – ...

Mike, yes to all your questions! You can just share the location of you custom feed with your users, they can add it through the Options dialog, and the products from your custom feed will become available through WebPI immediately. The blog post on how to do it should be out either today or tomorrow. Stay tuned :)

Hi Mark,
It seems that you are looking for defining your own custom feed with the application that will define the set of dependencies that you want. We are about to publish a series of blogs on how to write your own custom feeds. I will update this thread with the links, once the posts are out.

You can refer to this troubleshooting article to see if it helps: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/921901 or you can run the installation with the UI outside of Web PI, which can give you more descriptive error message. According to your log, the file was ...

Sorry for the incovenience. Have you tried installing SQL Server 2008 and .NET Fx 3.5 SP1 with WebPI RTW, which has numerous fixes and improvements?

Skyface, can you please answer a couple of questions to help us identify your problem:
What does the error say?
What platform are you running on?
What version of .NET Framework do you have installed?
