in reply to PAR::Packer error

Does anyone know anything about this error?

Based on your description and the error message that you posted, it looks like the pp utility attempted to delete a temporary file and ran into an issue. Have you tried creating the executable again to see if you get a similar error message?

The real path has my full name as supposed to DANIEL~1.LEG.

Actually, that probably is the correct path, but just in DOS 8.3 format. Try searching for "Windows short file name" for more informatin.

When I execute C:\>pp -o packed.exe hw.pl...

I'd recommend getting into the habit of using -x and/or -c options so that the pp utility will "determine additonal run-time dependencies" of the script and include them in the stand alone executable that it makes.

    Hi dasgar, Thanks for your reply.

    Have you tried creating the executable again to see if you get a similar error message?

    Yes, it happens every time I create an executable. Note that the executable is created and runs with no issues.

    that probably is the correct path, but just in DOS 8.3 format

    You are correct. It is the short path.
