Re: *.exe from pp on Win7 fails ( ppsimple.pl )

[Anonymous Monk]

Give ppsimple.pl a try, if it doesn't work post the last part of the log which is the call to pp/invocation of pp, and the output of pp

Yes, ppsimple.pl proved helpful. It revealed my problem to be an absence of the module Proc::Background in my system, which apparently pp needs but the *.pl didn't.

Indeed, excellent! I had to force-install that one, then install a few others, until ... at last ... ppsimple.pl ran out of errors to report and just followed through to make my now-working *.exe so thanks heaps!
