Dearest Monks,
I have a problem with perlapp and fail to even find a clue how to sort it out or debug it.
I have a fully functional script, that once packaged as an executable causes a crash. This is the typical Windows Send error report style.
As far as I have debugged it, I know that Windows does not like to write my top level node back to an xml file. I verified the xml format, I tried different file names, I tried different machines, Perlapp 6.0 and 6.0.1, an included and excluded .dll libraries, compressed and uncompressed executables.
I am using PerlApp and Windows XP Pro as well for building as user platforms. The XML library is XML::DOM (Please no comments I have been tole it is not the best choice often enough.) And XML::DOM works just fine in a lot of other places using the same functions.
I do not know how or where to look any further as the "uncompiled" version works just fine.
Thank you for all help or suggestions.

Cheers,
PerlingTheUK
