Hi Dan,

What version of perl are you running?  This is related to the $Tag->file() call; different versions of perl have changed how encoding works with the Safe module, so this may need an additional patch to get working properly.  I am going to be releasing a new Interchange version soon, so if I can reproduce the issue I’ll see about including that fix as well.

Best,

David
