in reply to "close" failing

Since it is run from web, I don't get to see any error message

Then you either need to check your web server's error log or use CGI::Carp.

    Specifically, use the following:

    use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser warningsToBrowser);
use CGI qw(:standard);
print header;
warningsToBrowser(1);

    This should give you some visibility into the cause of the problem.

      Also, the interesting error messages are probably being printed from abc.sh. They should end up in the server's error log. You can use IPC::Open3 to get a handle from which you can read them.
