Bob,
For info,
The only file that gets used out of the zip in your case is win32.coff.
I included the other files as they were used to create win32.coff so
that win32.coff is recreatable / amendable by anyone who might wish to
do so.
The change of requireAdministrator is something that would have to
happen in code that made binary replacements to the finished exec.
Changing it in the raw manifest will make no difference (as you noticed.).
Glad it worked for you.
Regards
Mark

Thank you all for your efforts on this. Let me start out by saying I got
the packer running on my machine! To recap for your files, it's a
Windows operating system: Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit Intel dual
processor @ 2.8 Gb per. I'm running Strawberry Perl, version 5.12.2. I
changed out the Win32 components in the first link you gave me and it
worked with nothing else needed. I did however change out the
<requestedExecutionLevel level="requireAdministrator" as you requested
and that then also worked with no visible difference. I did get one
failure on the tests, but it appears to be just trying to implement
converting a file that doesn't exist. I'm attaching two files to this
email. The 'make test" messages so you can see for yourself the error
message and a zip of the files exactly as needed to run on my system as
is. This one is prior to running the Makefile.PL so all someone would
need to do is extract the zip, and then:
perl makefile.pl
dmake
dmake test (ignoring the failed single test)
dmake install
Thanks again for your help. If I can be of any further help to you I'm
here.
