Re: Can't get PAR packager to run pp



http://www.bribes.org/perl/ppmdir.html

It's up to date with CPAN for PAR.

Thanks for all the suggestions.

I'm still having problems, but at least it's a different problem which
is always refreshing!

I added the bribes repository, as above, and installed PAR .977.
There was still no pp.bat anywhere on my system.

Then I did the install as described here: http://www.expertsrt.com/tutorials/Matt/perlPAR.html
by downloading each file and running nmake on each one.
Now when I type pp, I get:
Can't find par loader at C:/Perl/site/lib/PAR/Packer.pm line 101.
(There's now a pp.bat in c:\Perl\bin)

I'm using Perl 5.10.0, with PAR .977 on Windows XP.1
Same results if I use Perl 5.8

On my old system, running Perl 5.8 and PAR .90, pp.bat lives in \perl\site\bin, so it appears that the entire structure of PAR has changed.

Has anyone gotten this to work?

Thanks for all your help,

Tony
