This sounds very similar to the problems I am seeing here. Firstly (and I haven't debug'ed this at all), under winxp, using CPAN, I'm not getting parl installed on one of my WinXP machines. No obvious error messages coming, up, just no parl gets installed. Result PAR doesn't work
On my other XP machine (clue here perhaps) I have an older version of PAR which did drop a parl.exe onto my machine (or perhaps I used the activestate 0.64 version some time in the past?) - this all worked fine in the past. I recently upgraded to 0.74 or 0.75. Anyway, NOW, building stuff on this machine creates an exe which silently fails. So can I suggest that on your XP machine you check the version of parl.exe that you are using and just confirm that it isn't an old version? Perhaps the issue is actually with the installer somewhere?

I've recently had someone who has an Windows XP system, and wants to run the software. No problem - copy the .exe over and run it, simple. Not quite - when I double-click the exe, or run it from a command prompt, it instantly and silently exits. I rebuilt the exe with Perl2EXE on the Win2k system to check, and it runs perfectly on the XP system. Any ideas? Anything I can check or debug to see what's going on? - --Wade -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (Darwin) iD8DBQE/ghq1o4DwsyRGDscRAq30AJ4noGfH9Ufl1Qjvz0geXpWcvY2NDgCg5QFW DojANECr/o68v43jsl1GXfs= =vDBM -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
