Hi Rob

I had also deleted and re-unpacked the PAR-Packer-1.002 directory.

I did it again anyway and took more notice of the output of perl Makefile.pl: 

Warning: prerequisite Getopt::ArgvFile 1.07 not found.
Warning: prerequisite Module::ScanDeps 0.96 not found.
Warning: prerequisite PAR 0.994 not found.
Warning: prerequisite PAR::Dist 0.22 not found.
Warning: prerequisite Parse::Binary 0.04 not found.
Warning: prerequisite Win32::Exe 0.04 not found.

So I installed all of the pre-required packages and did the 3 dmakes again

It still hung as follows:

dmake.exe:  Warning: -- Found file corresponding to virtual target [mk
+tmpdir.h].

dmake.exe:  Warning: -- Found file corresponding to virtual target [mk

So I did a <CTRL>+<C> and re-ran it.

This time, it resulted in pages of errors, I could not copy-and-paste it all, what I was able to paste is right at the bottom of this posting.

I uninstalled PERL once after and re-unpacked PAR-Packer-1.002 twice, each time doing the process above and it always generates all these errors. Please could you let me know why this may be happeneing.

Thank you.

Richard.
