Re^4: no modules unziped from par archive
in thread no modules unziped from par archive
Well, if you've read the pp docs and the advice given to date you're creating the executable with pp with the -x option right? To date none of your posts show you actually doing this.
"I wonder how can i extract all of these files without running the executable."
Really? It tells you this in the documentation. Again, have you actually packed your script and it's dependencies?
Creating an exe based on my example from Re: PP: Executables still need require files.....:
C:\>pp -o pptest2.exe -c -x pptest.pl -v
C:\strawberry\perl\site\bin/pp: Packing pptest.pl
C:\strawberry\perl\site\bin/pp: Generating a fresh 'parl'.
C:\strawberry\perl\site\bin/pp: Running C:\DOCUME~1\REMOVED\LOCALS~1\T
+emp\parlf
7H0GJh.exe -B -Opptest2.exe C:\DOCUME~1\REMOVED\LOCALS~1\Temp\ppXKxhZ.

And so on....
Copy the exe to a computer which does not have perl installed, and it works as expected (in Re: PP: Executables still need require files.....).
I see no point in posting further until you provide a repeatable example of your code, how you're packaging it and what the actual output is. I doubt that you're taking the advice given on the -x option.
Update: broke the post size limit, removed some output.
