Actually, I think my first question should be if this module will work with Windows. If no, then, is there a Perl module that does cron for windows?
Thanks again, Heidi -----Original Message----- From: Heidi Ng [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 13, 2003 9:14 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Schedule::Cron Hi, I just found out about this Cron.pm module in Perl and would like to use it to schedule to run my perl scripts (I think the syntax is right.. I was hoping to run it to see what it does.) Anyway, I installed Cron.pm v1.5 and was trying to run the following script. #!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use Schedule::Cron; use warnings; ### Create a new object with default subroutine my $cron = new Schedule::Cron( \&test ); # ### Install the updater $cron->add_entry( "0-59/5 * * * *" , \&test); # ### Run scheduler my $cronPID = $cron->run( detach => 1); # # sub test { # do stuff here } But I got the following error: "POSIX::setsid not implemented on this architecture at C:/usr/site/lib/Schedule/Cron.pm line 502." I am running Perl v5.8 on WinXP Home. Thanks in advance.
