in thread Packaged binary fails on perlless systems [win32]

When you were writing your answer, I switched from ActivePerl to CitrusPerl and it worked on the first try too. So something must be wrong with PAR::Packer with my ActivePerl. All the installation steps were successful though.

I will try with StrawberryPerl, then try reinstalling ActivePerl. I will try with your simple foo.pl instead of the whole program too. I will let you know the result of my tests. Thanks for all your pointers.

And if it doesn't work, I will stick with CitrusPerl...

    Hi,
    I work on Cava Packager and Citrus Perl and so I am glad if that particular combination worked for you.
    However, for other readers of this thread I must point out that PAR::Packer normally works perfectly well when built for ActivePerl on Win32 and Roderich on the par@perl.org mailing list provides what must be some of the best free support available.
    I would like users to choose Cava Packager because they prefer the interface and packaging approach. But in terms of the end result being a distributable 'bundle', I don't think there's anything that is not possible with PAR::Packer on Win32.
