Hello

I have installed the latest version of PAR, but I am unable to use it

You have two choices :
1) use C:/Perl/site/bin/pp
eg : C:\Test\test>C:/Perl/site/bin/pp  -o test.exe test.pl

2) Add C:/Perl/site/bin/pp in your PATH and then
C:\Test\test>pp -o test.exe test.pl

'pp' has been separated out into its own PAR::Packer distribution, so
install that as well.

I checked the folder C:/Perl/site/bin/, there is empty folder.

I also checked C:\Perl\bin, there too no file as pp.

You don't seem to have repository on your computer wich have this
module.

ppm install http://www.bribes.org/perl/ppm/PAR-Packer.ppd

Nevertheless I recommand you to install 3 Perl repositories on your
computer

ppm> rep add bribes http://www.bribes.org/perl/ppm
ppm> rep add theoryx http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppms
ppm> rep add Trouchelle http://trouchelle.com/ppm/

NB : If you speak french, you can read this good documentation about
ppm and modules installation

The user I am working with on the remote machines is the root user
because the upgrade.pl script deals with the package management system
but the upgrade.pl script is user executable (0755 with chmod)

Did you lookup the message in perldiag.pod?

    =item Permission denied

    (F) The setuid emulator in suidperl decided you were up to no good.


>> For a quick test, change 'upgrade.pl' to 'date'.  


Did you try the quick test?

Did it work?

Did you try that too?

Do you realise how much of a bad idea this is? You *really* shouldn't
even be allowing ssh access as root directly.

A much better idea would be to put instructions about the work to be
done (say, a list of packages to be added or removed) into a file
somewhere, and have a cronjob running as root that picks this up and
does the work. You need to be very careful you don't end up executing
arbitrary shell commands from across the network.

Please post a *short* *complete* script we can all run, the output you
expected to see and the output you actually got. 'Permission denied' is
not a message produced by perl itself, so we have no way of knowing what
you've done to provoke it unless you show us your code.

The machines I am working with are dual boot machines and are in the
Linux boot at different times making writing a cronjob that will have
the package management system, this case libzypp in SUSE, go out and
install any security/important updates, and any updates to KDE 4.2.x
hard.  When they are in Linux boot jumping between 26 machines in
person to do this work gets very tedious which is why I went this
route to make the job easier.  The SSH port is blocked on the network
firewall so SSH access out side of the LAN is not a problem, even then
if something did go wrong all I have to do is re-clone the affected
machines.
