in reply to Error in perlapp command


Hello Chabbi,
Thanks for adding more info. However if noting works, i also feel that it would be prudent to paste the test.pl code as well within code brackets here as well. that way one of us can run it and see :D
as you say that making a binary version of the script is working fine on windows.
It is likely your test.pl has a file pathpath that is not computing or even an environment variable like $Bin in the command line which is not being interpreted.
btw what is $bin ? is that supposed to stand for the home directory ? try to give the exact path to chhabi folder instead of $bin.
also i hope u have taken the trouble to go through the documentation http://docs.activestate.com/pdk/9.3/PerlApp.html

The temporal difficulty with perl is u need to know C well to know the awesome.else u just keep *using* it and writing inefficient code
