Subject:

executable hangs if using version and HTML::TreeBuilder modules

Hi, The PAR generated from a simple script which uses version and HTML::TreeBuilder hangs when executed. PAR v0.960 version v0.68 HTML::Tree v3.23 $ cat test.pl #!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; use version; use HTML::TreeBuilder; print "Hello PAR\n"; $ pp -p -o test.par test.pl $ par.pl test.par The last command hangs indefinitely and consumes 100% CPU. However, if I generate an ELF executable, it seems to work $ pp -o test.exe test.pl $ ./text.exe $ But I need the PAR file! $ perl -v This is perl, v5.8.8 built for i386-linux-thread-multi $ uname -a Linux sanitarium 2.6.18-1.2798.fc6 #1 SMP Mon Oct 16 14:54:20 EDT 2006 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux Thanks, Rohan

I'm sorry, but I cannot reproduce this behaviour on any of my machines (linux x64, linux x86, win32 x86, freebsd x64). I can only guess what's happening: - How did you install the modules? Via apt/dpkg or via CPAN.pm? - Does it work as "parl test.par"? - Does it work as "perl -e 'use PAR {file => q{test.par}, run => q{test.pl}};'"? Perhaps par@perl.org can help you more than I. If you like, you can try writing to that mailing list. Steffen

I'm marking this issue as rejected because there hasn't been any feedback from the requestor in half a year. I still cannot reproduce the problem at all. A reply to this ticket will automatically reopen it if that is so desired.
