Problems with compliling perl

Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi, I have a problem producing executable file out of Per l scripts. Until 12.04 Ubuntu upgrade everything was working quite well. Now I get this messages when I try to compile scripts with :

pp -X DBD::SQLite -X DBD::CSV -X DBD::File -X DBD::Excel -I ./Eclipse/lib -I . -o Tinia_Visu_Event_Server ./Eclipse/bin/Tinia_Event_Visu_Server.pl

Error message says :

 
/tmp/parlVU3f: private subdirectory /tmp/par-root is unsafe (please re
+move it and retry your operation)
/usr/bin/pp: Failed to extract a parl from 'PAR::StrippedPARL::Static'
+ to file '/tmp/parlnRekYmE' at /usr/share/perl5/PAR/Packer.pm line 11
+69, <DATA> line 1.
[download]

What is wrong ? There is enough space on disks...

Thanks in advance,

Tinia

Remove the /tmp/par-root directory (as instructed) and try it again.	[reply]

I've tried this already (either removed or chmoded to 777), but error stays... Regards, Robert.	[reply]

chmoding has nothing to do with it , upgrade PAR/PAR::Packer	[reply]

My *nix experience and knowledge is admittedly very limited, but my first thought is there might be a permission level issue -- as in the user account that you're using doesn't have the needed permission to read/write some directory or file. If I'm reading that error message, the item in question would be either the /tmp directory or the "file '/tmp/parlnRekYmE'".	[reply]

What does `pp --version` report? I would upgrade both PAR and PAR::Packer	[reply] [d/l]

It says `pp --version PAR Packager, version 1.012 (PAR version 1.005) Copyright 2002-2009 by Audrey Tang <cpan@audreyt.org>` [download] I'm on Ubuntu 12.04 - it says they are up to date... Regards, Robert.	[reply] [d/l]

Nope, PAR::Packer is now at 1.013. If you are having problems with a module, check cpan, note module version differences, note entries in the changelog (for example RT #73491), check the open bugs.	[reply]
