Hi Andrew, It seems my Cygwin has attached itself to the PERL on my C drive and not the cygwin Perl. How do I change that? Also debugger seemed to work too. dextem AT USENDEXTEML1C /usr/bin $ which perl /cygdrive/c/PERL/BIN/perl dextem AT USENDEXTEML1C /usr/bin $ which Perl /cygdrive/c/PERL/BIN/Perl dextem AT USENDEXTEML1C /usr/bin $ perl -de 1 Loading DB routines from perl5db.pl version 1.28 Editor support available. Enter h or `h h' for help, or `perldoc perldebug' for more help. main::(-e:1): 1 DB<1> q -----Original Message----- From: cygwin-owner AT cygwin DOT com [mailto:cygwin-owner AT cygwin DOT com] On Behalf Of Andrew DeFaria Sent: Thursday, August 27, 2009 10:53 AM To: cygwin AT cygwin DOT com Subject: Re: Changing HOME for PERL Dexter_Michael AT emc DOT com wrote: > Before I go and end this thread can you tell me if the Perl.exe I have > in Cygwin looks correct? > > I can cd /usr/bin and the Perl there is: > > dextem AT USENDEXTEML1C /usr/bin > $ ls -la Perl.exe > -rwxrwxrw-+ 1 dextem mkgroup-l-d 34304 Jul 19 2007 Perl.exe > > I am not seeing the 'x' for execute however and maybe this is the issue? This is odd. You do know that Unix, thus Cygwin, implements a case=20 sensitive file system (in most cases) and that Perl.exe is not the same=20 as perl.exe. I've never seen a Perl.exe in Cygwin and alas I have no=20 more Windows machines at home to test on. Given the above I do see an "x" - actually two of them - one for owner=20 and one for group. You are the owner (dextem) so you have execute=20 permissions. (BTW: the mkgroup thing is trying to tell you to run=20 mkgroup > /etc/group). Aside from reporting your particulars as described in=20 http://cygwin.com/problems.html, it would be interesting to show the=20 output of "which perl" and try a "perl -de 1" to start up Perl in it's=20 debugger from the command line. If that works then the shebang line=20 should work. If the shebang line is not working then I would thing "perl -de 1" would also not work and may output enlightening stuff. --=20 Andrew DeFaria <http://defaria.com> Now they show you how detergents take out bloodstains. I think if you've got a T-shirt with a bloodstains all over it, maybe laundry isn't your=20 biggest problem. Maybe you should get rid of the body before you do the=20 wash. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
