I’m confused by this, I can’t see any reason for Ocra to fail in
building a one-line script.
I’ve tried disabling all antiviral and active-scan related programs and
reinstalling Ocra to no avail.
The error message really doesn’t give me anything to go on as far as I
can see.
Script content:
puts ‘Hi’
Ocra build result:

I’ve just completely rebuilt the laptop (fresh install of windows) and
reinstalled Ruby with Ocra, it still gives the same error! Wtf??
This is the line causing the exception:
system(""#{Ocra.lzmapath}" e tmpin tmpout 2>NUL") or fail
I have no idea what it’s doing.

This looks as if it invokes the external compression program for LZMA,
which it probably can’t find. Try to build your executable with
–disable-lzma. Note however this disables OCRA’s compression
facilities and you most likely will end up with a quite large
executable.
You could also file an issue at Issues · larsch/ocra · GitHub
or join the Google group at http://groups.google.com/group/ruby-ocra .
You’re more likely to get more specific help over there.
Vale,
Marvin

–no-lzma works! That gets me back up and running short-term and gives
me a direction to start looking in. Thank you so much!
Aha, I’ve cracked it. I previously redirected the command prompt to my
most commonly used path via a registry entry called Autorun. Since
that’s worked on every other computer I’ve used without a hitch I didn’t
even think of it until I noticed Ocra’s pathing code. That must have
been affecting the build process because now that I’ve disabled that key
value, everything works fine.
I guess the moral is: Playing with the registry may have unforeseen
consequences!
