Yep (ntsec;). script1.pl: #!/usr/bin/env perl $cmd = "perl /path/script2.pl"; system $cmd; 1; script2.pl: #!/usr/bin/env perl print "I'm script two.\n" 1; crontab -e: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 1 * * * * /usr/bin/perl /path/script1.pl Put both scripts in /path no mounts are involved. The mail from Cron: Can't open perl script "/path/script2.pl": No such file or directory It seems to be the problem that I didn't used an absolute path to perl in script1.pl. It works ok. if I change it to /usr/bin/perl. It seems that Cron is running the wrong perl. I need to fix my path.
