http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/K/KO/KOCEASY/Dancer-Plugin-FakeCGI-0.60.tar.gz I'm using Windows XP. ptar -xvzf Dancer-Plugin-FakeCGI-0.60.tar.gz ... Can't use an undefined value as an ARRAY reference at C:/strawberry5143/perl/lib/Archive/Tar.pm line 1033. when doing ptar -tzf Dancer-Plugin-FakeCGI-0.60.tar.gz Dancer-Plugin-FakeCGI-0.60/examples/lib/Dancer/ is shown as a file, not as directory.

It's a symbolic link to ../../lib/Dancer ptar extracts it fine on NetBSD when I just tested it. I have no access to MSWin32 at the moment. Just tested ptar under Cygwin and that works fine. I'll test with MSWin32 later on. Cheers, -- Chris Williams aka BinGOs PGP ID 0x4658671F http://www.gumbynet.org.uk ==========================

I found a previous ticket with a similar problem and a possible solution. I have incorporated the code and Archive::Tar will now extract the aforementioned tarball. Many thanks.
