I apoligise if this message doesn't get posted to the par mailing list correctly - I'm trying here...
I, too, had problems with parl.exe not spawning. I am running Windows XP Pro (WinXP WinXPPro), and I have MSVC++ installed. I am using ActiveState's perl. Whenever I tried to generate things with pp, I would get this error (Can't spawn parl.exe: No error at c:\Perl\bin\pp line 372), and a nice little MS window would pop up asking me if I wanted to debug, etc. Even better, if I ran "parl.exe", it would immediately crash, giving me the same window, but no error message. Finally, I used ppm to "install par", and -lo and behold!-, it seems to be working. I guess it couldn't find Par.pm and was dying. Hope my experience helps!!
