Hi,
I've only just begun using PAR and this may turn out to be some sort of user error. But I could not find any reference to the type of problem I'm seeing in any postings for the last year and half (or so).
The basic problem is that a set of scripts, which use DBI and DBD::Oracle, work on two Red Hat systems but fail on a third with the error:
No such file or directory at -e line 671
Following are the gory details:
I created the PAR file, a standalone executable, on my development machine, which runs RedHat 7.3, as a 'multi-script' archive. On the machine on which I created it, it works fine. The machine has all the environment variables and library paths to support Oracle OCI and the DBD::Oracle set. However, the Oracle home only contains the minimum set of files required to support the application.
I copied the archive to a Red Hat Enterprise WS, 3.0, system and created hard links for the various script names. The environment matches that of the above system, since I simply copied my login rc files from one to the other. The Oracle setup is different, in that Oracle home points to the same place as it does above but the library config (ld.so.conf) points to the full Oracle install location. The PAR file works as expected here as well.
The third system, Red Hat 7.3, is installed under VMware as a guest OS, running with/on the Enterprise WS system. This system does not have any of the login rc scripts (it's pretty much pristine, as installed). This is the machine that generates the error. I have tried every combination I can think of for variables, libraries (minimal and full). All to no avail.
Thanks for your help.
