Hi,

Which build of ActivePerl are you using?

perl -e"print Win32::BuildNumber() . qq(\n)"

The 'PAR-Packer-0.976-MSWin32-x86-multi-thread-5.8.8.par' is built against 
ActivePerl build 822 and probably won't work with previous releases.

I have no idea if it is this that is causing the particular error messages you 
are seeing. If you can confirm the build number I will check this out.

Regards

Mark

this using Perl Package Manager on ActivePerl with version 0.976. Didnt
work. Now I'm trying to install version 0.976 using nmake. Here is the
output:

Any help on installing this?
