Sure....  I can execute this script (as perl):

I'm trying to build an exe with this command:

        C:\Dev>pp -o out.exe test.pl

I get this from pp:

        BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at C:/Perl/lib/IO/File.pm line

        Compilation failed in require at -e line 305.

Where should par be installed?  Right now, I've just have it installed
in C:\Perl, and I've added C:\Perl\script to my PATH.  Could that be
causing my problems?

Doesn't matter what's in 'input.pl'. Could just be a 'hello world' type program. It will fail. Any ideas what I'm missing?

It cannot find Cwd.pm, but that you know. Can you your script as a perl file? Do you have your perl library or Cwd.pm in a non-standard place?

Hmmm.   I am using Windows XP, and also Windows Millenium.  I created my

executable on XP and ran it, and also ran it on my Millenium machine. BTW my Millenium machine does not have perl installed. I have perl v5.8.4 on my XP machine. I know this does not really help much. Can you post a simple script that shows the symptoms you described?

I spotted something. Namely, your INC path. If par/pp is installed correctly, then the executable that is created, when it executes for the first time, it creates a cache directory. I put in a fake "use ka4k;" in the test.pl code so the out.exe would fail. It gave me
:
Can't locate ka4k.pm in @INC (@INC contains: CODE(0xd8d08c) C:\DOCUME~1\malcolm\LOCALS~1\Temp\par-malcolm\cache-af1dd249
c8f8ef3e86132e16fda49a1fcea0df2a/inc CODE(0xd34858) .) at script/test.pl line 2.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at script/test.pl line 2.


Notice the long cache name. The exe should be using the perl files of the cache directory. NOT the perl files under c:\Perl. The exe should run without perl being installed on your machine at all.

Here is something you can try. Go back to whatever directory you used to download, unpack and test par. Somewhere under there (the contrib directory, I think) is a file called automated_pp_test.pl that you can run. Try to run it and see if everything that should pass, does pass. If not, there is a problem with the installation. If they do pass, then I would be at a loss as to what to do next. Except possibly reinstall par from a fresh directory.
