Re^2: @INC error

The program "email-reminder-2.0.pl" appears to run correctly when called independently but not when called by cron.

Tried that. I think it'd be best if you showed us exactly what you tried, because the output you're showing here just shows that some of the entries in @INC got duplicated, not that the path `/usr/local/share/perl5` got added to @INC like we suggested. And as I said, in cron, you'll have to set up the environment variables yourself. If you could explain more about your setup (like whether you're actually using local::lib or not, and how the module ended up where it did, what commands you're actually trying, etc.), we could be of more help.

The program "email-reminder-2.0.pl" appears to run correctly when called independently but not when called by cron. It therefore seems that a different @INC is being used when cron runs the script. The error message plainly states that @INC is: `/usr/local/lib64/perl5/5.30 /usr/local/share/perl5/5.30 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5 /usr/share/perl5` [download] If /usr/local/share/perl5/Mail/Mailer.pm exists, then @INC needs to include /usr/local/share/perl5. But /usr/local/share/perl5 is not one of the locations specified in @INC when cron runs the script. Cheers, Rob	[reply] [d/l]

huh, `/usr/local/share/perl5` is still not in `@INC`. (No idea what the first list you posted is, but it's not in that either.)	[reply] [d/l] [select]
