So it's likely that the answer is in the perl code you are running.

What I have is a Perl command in a Windows batch file which for some reason is failing with an exit code of 13. The Perl script itself can't exit with this number - there is no "exit 13" in my code - therefore it must be a problem with the Perl command itself. A	[reply]

Hmmm. No modules that could `exit`? `die` is supposed to exit with 255, so that can't be it. What's the actual error message (if there is one)? update: you're not setting $? anywhere? "What should it profit a man, if he should win a flame war, yet lose his cool?"	[reply] [d/l] [select]

I can't see the error message as the script wasn't run by myself - all I have to go on is that the exit code is 13.	[reply]
