Re: Problem when calling script from script in Perl/CGI in Tomcat5.5 Windows XP

Can you explain in more details what the problem is?

Any log messages? As i see you are calling perl interpreter directly? Did you try to write full path to perl?

With ` ` I do not have any failures in log. I run: my @arr = `perl -w $solver_file "$inp_file" "$outfile"`; [download] $outfile is just an indication to print to STDOUT I have Cygwin and ActivePerl on my machine which starts all pathes with /cygdrive/c/. when I type "which perl" in DOS cmd I get /cygdrive/c/ActivePerl/bin/perl So I tried my @arr = `/cygdrive/c/ActivePerl/bin/perl -w $solver_file "$inp_file" + "$outfile"`; [download] instead but same result, @arr is empty.

You may need to make the path-to-perl more windows-like. Try my @arr = `C:\\ActivePerl\\bin\\perl -w $solver_file "$inp_file" "$out +file"`; [download] I suspect the Windows cmd shell may not understand "/cygdrive", or may default to a different Windows drive letter.
