Make sure cmd.exe is able to locate "ppm". Probably it's better to embedd the "ppm install" line into a *.cmd script. Please also consider writing the output to NUL or during debug to a file. e.g. <install cmd="cmd /c ppm install perl-module.ppd >c:\ppminstall.log 2>&1" /> Then check the content of ppminstall.log. Such install tools are well known to print a huge amount of output. Remember that there is an issue in WSH (interpreter of *.js scripts) which makes it impossible to deal properly with output written to STDOUT. So if the output is larger than 4kB your script will just "hang". To prevent it you might have to redirect the output to NUL: <install cmd="cmd /c ppm install perl-module.ppd >NUL 2>&1" /> br, Rainer ------------------------------------------------------------------------- wpkg-users mailing list archives >> http://lists.wpkg.org/pipermail/wpkg-users/ _______________________________________________ wpkg-users mailing list wpkg-users@lists.wpkg.org http://lists.wpkg.org/mailman/listinfo/wpkg-users
