I'm on Windows 7 Enterprise SP1 64bit.
I have ActiveState Perl v5.10.1 built for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread installed.
C:\Perl\site\bin\pp.bat -V shows
Set up gcc environment - 3.4.5 (mingw-vista special r3)
PAR Packager, version 0.991 (PAR version 1.002)
My Perl script
#!c:\parperl\bin\perl
use warnings;
use strict;
print ("\nHello World!\n");
My pp command line
C:\Perl\site\bin\pp.bat -T -C -o test001.exe test001.pl
test001.exe runs fine on my system and on Windows systems with no Perl
installed however when I run test001.exe on a system with Perl v5.6.1 installed
the script fails and generates the following popup error window.
Problem signature:
Problem Event Name: APPCRASH
Application Name: test001.exe
Application Version: 0.0.0.0
Application Timestamp: 4b058b51
Fault Module Name: Perl56.dll
Fault Module Version: 5.6.1.628

Exception Code: c0000005

At first I thought the program was finding the locally installed Perl via the
path so I removed the path in the command console before running test001.exe
(set path=).
A popup error occurred saying it couldn't find Perl56.dll.
---------------------------
test001.exe - System Error
---------------------------
The program can't start because Perl56.dll is missing from your computer. Try
reinstalling the program to fix this problem.
---------------------------
I have tried all possible combinations of the following with no success.
1. Removing the bang line from test001.pl
2. Adding -B to the pp.bat command line (which is on by default so this
shouldn't have worked anyway)
3. Removing the path before running the script
4. Removing entries from @INC
If I rename the Perl directory from C:\Perl to C:\xPerl then test001.exe runs
fine.
The question is how to I create test001.exe so that it ignores the locally
installed Perl on the system?
Thanks,
keith
