I'm not familiar with that repository, but it looks like there may be an incompatibility between the version of ActivePerl used to compile the ppm and the version of ActivePerl that you are using. That's just a guess on my part.

Here's what I would try if I were in your place:

• Uninstall the the PAR modules that you installed from that repository.
• Install MinGW and dmake from the default ActiveState repository that was configured into PPM when you installed ActivePerl.
• From a command prompt, you should now be able to install directly from CPAN by typing cpan install PAR::Packer

Alternatively, if you wanted to go back to Strawberry Perl, it will already have MinGW and dmake ready to for use after install. However, you'll probably want to use a newer version than what you listed in your original post.
