ppm, ppm.bat, ppm3, and ppm3.bat are all just frontends that ultimately call ppm3-bin. It is invoked by system($opt_exe, @ARGV); where opt_exe is a retrieved path to ppm3-bin. That is the only place that could throw an "invalid perl script" error. U can modify one of the frontends to print $opt_exe so u can see what it thinks ppm3-bin is. Check ppm3-bin for the proper #!perl.exe. There is also a ppm3-bin.bat that directly runs the ppm shell just like the other methods. Try running that. Also try the other things I suggested and let us know what happens. -- REMEMBER THE WORLD TRADE CENTER ---=< WTC 911 >=-- "...ne cede malis" 00000100 _______________________________________________ Perl-Win32-Users mailing list Perl-Win32-Users@listserv.ActiveState.com To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs
