Found the problem for getting the error in the previous post Installed the mpg123 command locally once the full path for the command is specified it was working fine Now My assumption is, this might be a problem to get the connection between the mpg123sh script and mpg123 -R command Please help me..............

Sure, that is your problem. It sounds like you might have compiled mpg123, then ran it from the compile directory, but never actually installed it as root. Without installing mpg123 somewhere in your system's PATH, with "make install", the Perl script cannot find mpg123, the pipe fails, breaks, and gives you the first error message you got.
