Build fails with recent strawberry perl versions #28

Closed jochenpee closed 3 years ago

jochenpee commented 3 years ago

I cannot find a strawberry perl version that works. Last version I had working was Perl 5.8.9.4 with PP 1.010. I am lost, please help.

PAR-Packer doesn't work with the "Portable edition" of Strawberry Perl, use another edition.

I've been using the Strawberry Perl portable edition for several versions without issue, since at least perl 5.22. I just tested PAR::Packer 1.50 using perl 5.28 and it passes all tests.

@jochenpee - make sure you run the portable shell at the top level of the strawberry perl directory so the paths are set correctly. Look for portableshell.bat.

You might also be hitting issues with antivirus software, so check any logs for PAR::Packer related files in quarantine (although I would expect more tests to fail if that were the case).

@shawnlaffan I stand corrected :grinning:

@jochenpee Failures in tests 33-34 in t/20-pp.t are relatively harmless (they test "pp -a ..." and "pp -A ...")

@rschupp @shawnlaffan Thanks for the quick response and all the hints! I use the ZIP version now and it seems to work! I assumed I could not write to C:\ in Win10, but I was wrong. And now the ZIP version only needs a dir without spaces.
