I don't think so Rajesh.
have a look at this.
(sidgeek:~/shells) ls -la
total 12
drwxr-sr-x 2 sidgeek sidgeek 1024 May 16 11:27 .
drwxr-s--x 52 sidgeek sidgeek 6144 May 16 11:27 ..
-rwxr--r-- 1 sidgeek sidgeek 162 May 8 10:52 mintave.pl
-rw-r--r-- 1 sidgeek sidgeek 262 May 16 11:27 parser.pl
See above, no xecute bit set on parser.pl.
(sidgeek:~/shells) cat parser.pl
#!/usr/bin/perl
print " IP Date Time Path \n ";
print "================ ============== ========== ==== \n ";
(sidgeek:~/shells) ./parser.pl
zsh: permission denied: ./parser.pl
Obvious ain't it ?
(sidgeek:~/shells) perl parser.pl
IP Date Time Path
================ ============== ========== ====
When you run bash runInst.sh, bash runs the program for you and the
program is not run by itself.
now after doing a chmod u+x on parser.pl
(sidgeek:~/shells) ls -la
total 12
drwxr-sr-x 2 sidgeek sidgeek 1024 May 16 11:27 .
drwxr-s--x 52 sidgeek sidgeek 6144 May 16 11:29 ..
-rwxr--r-- 1 sidgeek sidgeek 162 May 8 10:52 mintave.pl
-rwxr--r-- 1 sidgeek sidgeek 262 May 16 11:27 parser.pl
(sidgeek:~/shells) ./parser.pl
IP Date Time Path

Now do you get it. The directory in which it is there is set
executable. But still it doesnot make much of a difference.
I hope you get it now.
