Hi Ben,

I was wondering what the other platform is. If it is Mac OS, then I believe that it will not install programs with a .exe extension. I believe .exe programs are for Windows only. I am not sufficiently knowledgeable to tell you whether a Perl program can run independantly when packaged as a .exe program, if Perl is not installed on the Win machine. Although if you have Perl included in the .exe install package, it may deal with your problem.

If your Perl program is a .pl, .cgi, or .pm then as far as I know Perl or MacPerl needs to be installed: Mac OS X has Perl already installed, many Linux packages come with Perl already installed, for Windows you may need to install Perl, for pre-Mac OS X a version of MacPerl is necessary.

My only other thought is that you may be able to locate the type.pm module on CPAN that is not for MacPerl but Perl.

HTH,

T R,

Well, that puts me in an awkward situation. I can run
my perl script on win2000 without any problems, but I
need it to be executable to run independently on
another no-perl server. Perl2exe has asked for this
module to be included...so I'm just trying to get what
perl2exe wants in order to get the script 2 exec.

The perl2exe version is win ver.

Any ideas?

Ben
