I have a perl script that I can execute from the command line as root. It runs fine. When I try to automate it using the root crontab, the script fails.
The lines from my script that are causing the problem are: my $scomd = "/usr/local/bin/ps2pdf -dPDFSETTINGS=/prepress -dProcessColorModel=/DeviceGray -dAutoRotatePages=/PageByPage -dDownsampleMonoImages=true -dMonoImageDownsampleType=/Average -dMonoImageDownsampleThreshold=1.5 -dMonoImageResolution=600 ".$inpath.$cur_ps_files[0]." ".$outpath.$pdffilename; ### create the new .pdf file from the .ps file system($scomd) == 0 or return "system $scomd failed: $?"; The cron message to mail/root ends with: exec: ps2pdf12: not found I am assuming that cron cannot find a path or a config file for ghostscript, but I don't have any idea how to fix this problem. Any help would be appreciated. _________________________________________________________________ Get the power of Windows + Web with the new Windows Live. http://www.windowslive.com?ocid=TXT_TAGHM_Wave2_powerofwindows_122007_______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
