Hello all, I am trying to install Test::Simple 0.47 on OpenVMS V7.3-1 on an AlphaServer_DS20_500_MHz Alpha
Test::Harness 2.26 installed fine, (no tests failed, some skipped). When I do mmk (the VMS make command) test, I get this: --- cut here --- $ mmk test perl "-I[.blib.arch]" "-I[.blib.lib]" "" "" -e "use Test::Harness qw(&runtests $verbose); $verbose=0; runtests @ARGV;" t/*.t Semicolon seems to be missing at line 1. Semicolon seems to be missing at line 2. --- cut here --- And the process hangs or stalls or whatever you want to call it. My VMS guru looked at the process state and told me that the process is hibernating - not waiting for keyboard input, but in a different state. He said it's an unusual state to get in, so we should all be proud I guess. I've tried changing the "t/*.t" at the end of the line as VMS handles directories in a rather strange way (by my standards at least), but without success (I'm no VMS guy though), I've tried specifying just one of the files in the t directory instead. I've tried deugging the perl command above using "perl -d", but get in the same state. Can anyone offer any help please? The mailing list archive at http://www.xray.mpe.mpg.de/mailing-lists/vmsperl/ mentioned Test::Simple, but not this error, and all the other posts were over a year ago, so it is probably something I'm doing.
