How can I build cpan modules on 64-bit windows server 2012?

How can I build cpan modules on 64-bit windows server 2012?

This is the error message:

It looks like you don't have a C compiler and make utility installed.  Trying
to install dmake and the MinGW64 gcc compiler using the Perl Package Manager.
This may take a a few minutes...

Downloading pan packlist...done
ppm.bat install failed: Can't find any package that provides MinGW64

It looks like the installation of dmake and MinGW64 has failed.  You will not
be able to run Makefile commands or compile C extension code.  Please check
your internet connection and your proxy settings!

Use Strawberry Perl (64bit)! This version of Perl comes with a gcc compiler and is working on 64bit systems, you can download modeules from CPAN and compile them if needed.
