in reply to PAR: pp No Perl script found in input

How did you install PAR::Packer?

Whatever version of PAR PAR::Packer you're using you should upgrade -- it works for me

$ cat test.pl
use Data::Dump;
dd {
    ARGV =>\@ARGV,
    INC =>\@INC,
    PPENV => { map {$_=>$ENV{$_} } grep /par|perl/i, keys%ENV },
};
$ pp test.pl -o shabba.exe

$ shabba.exe
{
  ARGV  => [],
  INC   => [
             "...par..cache-acab98b7b1961d92a7500944d1d5827b00b29169\\
+inc\\lib",
             "...par..cache-acab98b7b1961d92a7500944d1d5827b00b29169\\
+inc",
             sub { ... },
             sub { ... },
           ],
  PPENV => {
             PAR_0           => "...par..cache-acab98b7b1961d92a750094
+4d1d5827b00b29169
\\98ca9bd6.pl",
             PAR_ARGC        => 1,
             PAR_ARGV_0      => "shabba.exe",
             PAR_INITIALIZED => 2,
             PAR_PROGNAME    => "...shabba.exe",
             PAR_SPAWNED     => 1,
             PAR_TEMP        => "...par..cache-acab98b7b1961d92a750094
+4d1d5827b00b29169
",
           },
}


$ pp --version
PAR Packager, version 1.014 (PAR version 1.007)
...

Also, you should use the -x option

Greetings,
I am using the same version you are, I just downloaded it last week.

pp --version
PAR Packager, version 1.014 (PAR version 1.007)

Since pp actually works if I use it in \Perl\site\bin I doubt it an installation issue unless some PATH did not get updated somehow.

thanks

You can doubt it, but I am telling you, your installation is messed up

OK, attempted to re-install, cpan says all is well and I still have the same problem, now what?

cpan install pp
Set up gcc environment - 3.4.5 (mingw-vista special r3)
CPAN: Term::ANSIColor loaded ok (v3.02)
CPAN: Storable loaded ok (v2.34)
Reading 'C:\Perl\cpan\Metadata'
Database was generated on Wed, 27 Feb 2013 12:08:03 GMT
CPAN: Module::CoreList loaded ok (v2.77)
pp is up to date (0.992).

pp -o hello.exe hello.pl
No Perl script found in input

pp still works fine if I move the Perl script into \Perl\site\lib and run the command from there.
