Are you specifying the full file path? Are you using UNIX-style forward
slashes for directory delimiters?
Perl on NT will follow Windows conventions about finding and executing
files, and I never rely on the search path. Its always better to give a
full path to the executable.
Ex.
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
# Running an exe in DOSneyland with full path & 'Nixian slashes
use Strict;
use Diagnostics;
system ("e:/ntreskit/ls.exe -l e:/eric");
