Re: Using perl for creating project folders

in reply to Using perl for creating project folders

Did you test it on a unix box too?
It dies on line 19: Can't chdir to $project: Permission denied.
- for some strange reason the directory has 1407 for permissions, not 0775 as you would have wanted it (octals misunderstood and got converted to octals again?).

In sub validate the s/\W//g; does all you need, you don't have to care about blanks when you take away all non-word-characters anyway.

At home I use WindowsXP for developing - the linux box is in my office. On Windows it works fine, of course chmod is silently ignored. I've just calculated it and 0775d is 1407o, thats ugly. I must test it under linux, to remove the bugs. I got it! Read more... (1424 Bytes) You need to explicit oct the rights for chmod. Thank you!	[reply] [d/l]
