it's in the last line:
kill 'HUP',`cat $PIDFILE`;
it's a unix command to kill *nix processes... which of course won't work on
windows...
what is the purpose of using this on windows? it's structure is quite
different...

Subject: perl scripts
Hi,
I am very new to perl. I am just using the perl script to run this
application. I have this perl script in unix and i need to convert it to
windows . can anyone help me? The error message that it shows when i run
this script is , it cannot identify the "HUP". and i don't know what is
that? the script is as the following:
#!/usr/local/bin/perl
$LOGPATH='D:/apache/apache/logs';
@LOGNAMES=('access_log');
$PIDFILE = 'http://httpd.pid';
$MAXCYCLE = 4;
chdir $LOGPATH; # Change to the log directory
foreach $filename (@LOGNAMES)
for (my $s=$MAXCYCLE; $s >= 0; $s-- )
$oldname = $s ? "$filename.$s" : $filename;
$newname = join(".",$filename,$s+1);
rename $oldname,$newname if -e $oldname;
}
}
kill 'HUP',`cat $PIDFILE`;
Pls assist me. Thank you.
