Re: mysql error

Do you say it's installed for each path listed? Seriously?

Could you show us at least one of these paths?

I suppose you are talking about a CGI script called via a webserver like Apache?

Webservers can have their own environment set in their configs. You might want to dump $ENV{PERL5LIB} and similar into your HTML to check.

Probably your are even using another Perl installation?

You are right about different versions of perl: which perl /usr/local/bin/perl Script: #!/usr/bin/perl If I change the script to: #!/usr/local/bin/perl It chokes. Do you know how I can change perl to /usr/bin/perl in debian 8?	[reply]

It's the order in your $PATH environmental variable: `echo $PATH` [download] You can change the order to put /usr/bin/ before /usr/local/bin. Or instead of running the script like `perl script_name.pl` [download] just run `./script_name.pl` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]

The best I can tell, $ENV{PERL5LIB} is empty. @e = $ENV{PERL5LIB}; $n = @e; $l = length(@e); print "l = $l \n"; print "n= $n \n"; print "@e"; print " \n"; This returns nothing either from my browser or the command line.	[reply]
