- Subject: New install, script execution, bad interpreter
I recently re-installed cygwin. The install went well
but I have one problem concerning executing scripts.
I usually use the perl that comes with cygwin but for
some work I need ActiveState modules and I have a
script that will call ActiveState as outlined by Mark
Parris
http://www.cs.unc.edu/~jeffay/dirt/FAQ/cygwin-perl.html
This is a bash script (starts with #!/bin/bash) and
resides at /usr/local/bin/perl. To call ActiveState I
start a script with #!/usr/local/bin/perl rather that
#!/usr/local/perl. This has all worked very well
untill the re-install. Now when I call active state I
get (using the script testAS):
bash: ./testAS: /usr/local/bin/perl: bad interpreter:
No such file or directory
I've check a number of things. The scripts are all
unix, dos2unix has no effect. Running a simple bash
script works fine, althought ?? if I move the script
to my bin directory and back it will not work.
cyg> testSH
bash
cyg> mv testSH ./bin
cyg> testSH
bash
cyg> mv ./bin/testSH .
cyg> testSH
bash: /home/jmapoles/bin/testSH: No such file or
directory
cyg>
Thanks for any help,
John Mapoles
