Re: Dealing with incorrect shebang line entries on Windows with Apache

perlrun recommends

#!/usr/bin/env perl
[download]

which may work for you in this case.

Update Added emphasis to the word "may" in response to merlyn's comment. :-)

That's actually a dangerous practice, if you have multiple installs of Perl. Your PATH may not match my PATH, so we'll end up picking different Perl versions to run. Also, `env` may not be on your box, and worse, I've seen machines where it's `/bin/env` instead of /usr/bin/env. Ooops! -- Randal L.

Good point. Being the main 'Perl guy' here at work, I have three installs of Perl. A couple others have two installs and the rest have just one install.	[reply]
