Hi Caleb - thanks for the report. Can you tell me if the test fails consistently for you or whether it was a one-time thing. The fact that the test script complains the file is missing is a bit odd since the test script itself created the file a few lines earlier. That earlier code could potentially fail if (for example) your disk filled up or you were using a network-mounted filesystem and there were transient network issues. Looking at the code I can definitely improve the error checking to have it die at the point of the real failure rather than later on.

It failed at least 3 attempts for me. Disk would not be full due to the fact that I continued to install things after. It was on a VPS, no network mounts. I tried it on 2 different perlbrew's 5.16.1 and 5.14.2 and most of the 5.14.2 brew was downloaded and installed after the 5.16.1 try. -- Caleb Cushing http://xenoterracide.com

It seems likely that the original cause of this problem is that XML::Simple's test suite did not work when tests were run in parallel. So the "File does not exist" error was because a different test script had just deleted the file. The latest release of XML::Simple uses a unique filename for each test and seems to run reliably under 'prove -j9'. I've also removed a number of useless eval wrappers from the test suite which would potentially mask the root cause of problems, so if this failure does reoccur we should be able to see why. Thanks again for the report. Grant
