in thread call perl script from another

Assuming you had tested the obvious and the script pathname is correct, then check the #! line in the script you are calling. Some shells can report that error message if they cannot find the program in the line. A common error is to miss out the leading /, as in:
#! usr/bin/perl ## << wrong!

    the problem was the #!line in the script i'm calling

    #!/user/bin/perl instead of #!/usr/bin/perl.

    thank you for all your help
