Yes, it's executable.  The "perl process.pl" command worked fine.
It just seems to be having trouble finding the path the perl if
it attempts to find the path via the first line of the process.pl file
(like it's supposed to do).

Hi Ron,
Is the script executable?
chmod +x process.pl

Red Hat Linux 6.2

I have a strange problem getting perl to run.
Look at the following information:

[root@cx668484-c cgi-bin]# which perl
/usr/bin/perl
[root@cx668484-c cgi-bin]# more process
#!/bin/bash

    echo "Content-Type: text/html"
    echo ""

    echo "<head><title>Bash test</title></head>"
    echo "<body><h1>Testing BASH</h1></body>"
[root@cx668484-c cgi-bin]# more process.pl
#!/usr/bin/perl

print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
print "<html><head><title>Hello</title></head><body>Hello
World</body></html>\n";
[root@cx668484-c cgi-bin]# ./process
Content-Type: text/html

<head><title>Bash test</title></head>
<body><h1>Testing BASH</h1></body>
[root@cx668484-c cgi-bin]# ./process.pl
bash: ./process.pl: No such file or directory
[root@cx668484-c cgi-bin]# perl process.pl
Content-type: text/html

<html><head><title>Hello</title></head><body>Hello World</body></html>
[root@cx668484-c cgi-bin]#

================================

When I try to run "./process.pl" the error message
"bash: ./process.pl: No such file or directory" is complaining
that bash cannot find perl!  Since which perl clearly shows
it to be located at /usr/bin/perl and since the first line
of the process.pl file is #!/usr/bin/perl I don't see why
this is failing.  When I explicitly run "perl process.pl"
it works as expected.  What's wrong?

Regards,
Ron Brinkman
