can you run it manually by passing it to the interpreter
perl test.pl
?
the permissions should be (at least) 755 .. ie.
chmod 755 test.pl
but you're right .. the fact that it works in the debugger should mean
that's not the problem
I assume that you aren't doing anything crazy like having a blank line
before the shebang line .. because obviously that'll also create problems
(but you'd have to be really crazy to delete the blank line when adding the
'-d' option)
other than ensuring that the shebang line is correct (again - you'd have to
be crazy to be changing it without realising when you add the '-d' option)
there doesn't seem to be anything obvious
