Hi, I have tried with adding the directory where perl_functions.pl lives in my startup.pl file. Again, the error is the following:
Can't locate perl_functions.pl in @INC I have also tried with the absolute path at require "path"; in 'search.pl' and it works ok. But I need to work with relative paths or with a unique declaration of this path because the paths are going to change. What can I do in this case?
