I recently re-installed cygwin. The install went well but I have one problem concerning executing scripts. I usually use the perl that comes with cygwin but for some work I need ActiveState modules and I have a script that will call ActiveState as outlined by Mark Parris
http://www.cs.unc.edu/~jeffay/dirt/FAQ/cygwin-perl.html This is a bash script (starts with #!/bin/bash) and resides at /usr/local/bin/perl. To call ActiveState I start a script with #!/usr/local/bin/perl rather that #!/usr/local/perl. This has all worked very well untill the re-install. Now when I call active state I get (using the script testAS): bash: ./testAS: /usr/local/bin/perl: bad interpreter: No such file or directory I've check a number of things. The scripts are all unix, dos2unix has no effect. Running a simple bash script works fine, althought ?? if I move the script to my bin directory and back it will not work. cyg> testSH bash cyg> mv testSH ./bin cyg> testSH bash cyg> mv ./bin/testSH . cyg> testSH bash: /home/jmapoles/bin/testSH: No such file or directory cyg> Thanks for any help, John Mapoles __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
