in thread Win32::Exe - Resource section creation fails

I'm also using Win32::Exe Version 0.14. But I installed it via ppm and NOT from cpan. But I think that this shouldn't make a difference.

    If you have the capacity (ie a auitable compiler) to build Win32::Exe from source, maybe do that and see if it makes a difference. (You're right, it shouldn't make a difference.)

    Also check to see how Win32::Exe goes at creating the icon for an exe file that has *not* been created by 'pp'.

      I tried it with notepad.exe. And now it was working.

      So I was wrong with my assumption that the problem is Win32::Exe. The generated exe of Par::Packer seems to be incompatible to the the resource section generation of Win32::Exe.
