Hi. I've attached a mail thread I came across in the archivies. Does anyone have any further information on what needs to happen to the adminmisc module to fix this problem? A patch or a new build perhaps? I'd really like to be able to reliably determine file version info. Someone else suggested that the function present in the setupsup module may be more robust. Anyone?
Thanks, PJ * * * * * * * * RE: Win32::AdminMisc::GetFileInfo Crash add this thread to my home page by Dave Roth other posts by this author Sep 20 2002 3:28AM messages near this date You are right on both accounts. :) -----Original Message----- From: Gould, Kevin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, September 19, 2002 9:35 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Win32::AdminMisc::GetFileInfo Crash I talked with Dave Roth about this about a year ago. I had stumbled on a couple of files that it couldn't handle; I think that a pkzip executable may have been one of them if I remember correctly. I expect he hasn't had time to fix it, or that perhaps he's hoping someone else will contribute a solution since he did all the hard work on the module in the first place. ;-) -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, September 19, 2002 10:24 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Win32::AdminMisc::GetFileInfo Crash Ok. I am now having some problems with Win32::AdminMisc::GetFileInfo. Basically the issue is when I check specific files, it crashes the Perl Command Line Interpreter. Two of the files in question are ... %SYSTEMROOT%\System32\cliconfg.exe C:\Program Files\Komodo-1.2\Komodo.exe The error signature that it gives is ... AppName: perl.exe AppVer: 5.6.1.633 ModName: adminmisc.dll ModVer: 0.0.0.0 Offset: 000014a9 I can provide the rest of the dump, if anyone needs to see it. This occurs every time, so it is not a random event. A test script as simple as this should trigger it. use Win32::AdminMisc; Win32::AdminMisc::GetFileInfo ("C:\\Windows\\System32\\cliconfg.exe", \%fileinfo); The machine specifics are... OS - Windows XP Perl - ActivePerl 5.6.1 Build 633 Win32::AdminMisc - 20000708 Does anyone have any ideas on where to go or how to fix this? Can anyone else even replicate this problem? Thanks.
