Any ideas?

Chris,

I've seen this happen before. Please post your entire Build.PL script.
Even better, take Ken's bug-reporting skeleton[1] and create a
reproducible example that we can try.

Ok, here's what I've got. I downloaded the MP1 skeleton and extracted:

   perl Makefile.PL
   nmake
   nmake test

Passes all tests pass and it uses my apache.exe from TestConfigData.

--------

Delete directory. Reextract skeleton.
Now, I add a simple Build.PL file (See attached: Build.PL.basic)

   perl Build.PL
   perl Build
   perl Build test

Passes all tests pass and it uses my apache.exe from TestConfigData.

--------

Delete directory. Reextract skeleton.
Now, I add s simple Build.PL with a call to generate_script('t/SMOKE')
(See attached: Build.PL.smoke) and I add SMOKE.PL to t/

   perl Build.PL
   perl Build
   perl Build test

Endless loop asking for location of Apache.exe.

[warning] running with new config opts:  -httpd 
C:\Development\Apache584\Apache.exe
C:\Development\Perl\584\bin\perl.exe -I C:\Apache-Test-skeleton-mp1\blib\lib -I 
C:\Apache-Test-skeleton-mp1\blib\arch t\SMOKE -bugreport -ve
rbose=0
'-httpd' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

We are now going to configure the Apache-Test framework.
This configuration process needs to be done only once.

--------

Delete directory. Reextract skeleton.
Repeat with Build.PL with generate_script for t/TEST and t/SMOKE, adding
TEST.PL and SMOKE.PL in t/.

Same results. Endless loop.

---------

Now, I know that in the MB version, you don't need to generate t/TEST,
it's done automatically. But since the old MakeMaker way had both, I
left them both in my conversion to M::B

Hopefully this helps.
This is under win32 (XP Pro), perl 5.8.4, A::T 1.21, and M::B 0.2609
