[wpkg-users] Activestate Perl Installs but Fails

Wpkg installs activestate perl on computer, but it doesn't add entry to
the local wpkg.xml file.  Because it doesn't add the entry to the
wpkg.xml file I cannot upgrade perl.  The event viewer shows
1. Product: ActivePerl 5.10.0 Build 1003 -- Configuration completed
successfully.

2. Could not process (install) ActiveState Perl.
Failed checking after installation

Maybe there is something I am missing in my packages.xml file.  Here it
is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<packages>

<package
   id="perl"
   name="ActiveState Perl"
   revision="5"
   reboot="false"
   priority="1">
   <check type='uninstall' condition='exists' path='ActivePerl
5.10.0.1003 Build 285500' />
   
   <install cmd='msiexec /i
\\S012\Wpkg\Apps\ActivePerl-5.10.0.1003-MSWin32-x86-285500.msi
PERL_PATH=Yes PERL_EXT=Yes /q' />

   <upgrade cmd='msiexec /i
\\S012\Wpkg\Apps\ActivePerl-5.10.0.1003-MSWin32-x86-285500.msi
PERL_PATH=Yes PERL_EXT=Yes /q' />

   <remove cmd='msiexec /x
ActivePerl-5.10.0.1003-MSWin32-x86-285500.msi' />
   
</package>

</packages>
