Tom, You have to put /usr/local/bin in your path before /usr/bin
PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH export PATH I typically set this in the /etc/profile and have not had any adverse effects from doing so. Also, you can specifically path your perl scripts by doing #!/usr/local/bin/perl -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of nobody Sent: Tuesday, September 13, 2005 5:07 AM To: perl-unix-users@listserv.ActiveState.com Subject: [Perl-unix-users] Install Perl under Solaris 9 Hi all, i have the following Problem. Solaris has a Perl Version (5.6.1) installed. But this Version was not compiled with gcc so i decided to install an own Version of Perl. The Problem now is, that older Programms look at /usr/bin/perl (which is now linked to the newer Version) and don't start anymore. If i change the link /usr/bin/perl back to the old perl version, the older programms run fine, but the Programms which where installed later dont start anymore. I can not change every time the /usr/bin/perl if i start another programm! Is there a possibility to fix this problem? Thanks a lot -Tom- _______________________________________________ Perl-Unix-Users mailing list Perl-Unix-Users@listserv.ActiveState.com To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs _______________________________________________ Perl-Unix-Users mailing list Perl-Unix-Users@listserv.ActiveState.com To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs
