Re^2: Running a Perl Code within a Perl Code Using "Shell Module"

Given this directory structure

~/MyPerl
   |
   |__ ans # this stores all the .fasta files (input)
   |__ result_ans # to store the result
   |__ mycode.pl
[download]

Does this script does what it should:

find  ans/ -name '*.fasta' -maxdepth 1 -print0 \
| xargs -r -0 -P5 -n1 sh -c 'perl mycode.pl "$1" > ~/MyPerl/result_ans
+/"$1".out' ''
[download]

Cause it gives this message:

: /home/myname/MyPerl/result_ans/ans/hm14_ans.fasta.out: No such file 
+or directory
[download]

Edward

No, that can’t work. As you can see in the error message, the path component is included in the logfile’s path. Just execute this from within `~/MyPerl/ans` and omit the path argument to `find`, that’s the easiest solution. Makeshifts last the longest.	[reply]
