Thanks for any help
I think your problem is that you installed an incompatible PPM package. Try finding a repository with a binary that was build with your version of ActivePerl. As a fall-back, you can always install PAR::Packer directly via "cpan" if you set up a C compiler to work with your Perl. Or install Strawberry Perl which comes with a C compiler from the start. By the way: version 0.976 of PAR::Packer is quite old. version 0.991 is out. Regardless, the error message is curious. Maybe it's similar to those other problems of incompatible dll's being picked up early in the bootstrapping process. Best regards, Steffen
