in reply to pp generated executable can't find or load libraries

Hello vexed and welcome to the monastery and to the wonderful world of Perl!

your issue seems not so easy: your

> SYSTEM ERROR in executing sendEmail.pl : 256 at C:/Perl/perl/site/lib/Module/ScanDeps.pm line 1503

is when Module::ScanDeps try to perl -c what it received.

This can be related to one of modules you are trying to load because Net::SSLeay is bit particular: Re^3: PAR::Packer - 'dll not found' error on run.

So I cant resolve atm your pp issue with this script.

Anyway to send mail using perl is by far easier than debug the problem you are facing :) so consider well your needs to see if you can just embed or create your own mailsender routine.

PS see also PAR and pp in my bibliotheca dedicated section.

    Thank you for your reply Discipulus,

    I have managed to check the original executable from 2009 using depends.exe (on an old Windows 7 PC) and it is very different compared to the one I packaged, it seems to have been packaged using Perl 5.8. In anyway, I assumed it is a straight forward issue but I was wrong. Thanks for your time.

      I suppose you'll like Dependencies :)

        Hi Discipulus,

        Yes I have tried that when depends.exe hanged on my Windows 10 workstation, but somehow I couldn't get it to profile sendMail.exe with TLS arguments on.
