I tried the same thing with c:/winnt/system32/cmd.exe (I don't have CQPerl ;-) ) and it worked fine. Perhaps you can try that and see if it points to a CQPerl problem or some local configuration issue.
Larry Original Message: ----------------- From: Andrew DeFaria [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Fri, 21 Feb 2003 10:41:45 -0800 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Symlink to script fails I have need to use Rational's "CQPerl" which appears to be a derivative of Active State Perl that allows me to use Perl to access Clearquest. I have a perl script that does what I want however if I symlink that script the symlinked invocation does not work! I've drastically reduced the Perl script to simply demonstrate the problem: $ cat foo #!c:/Progra~1/Rational/ClearQuest/CQPerl print "Hello world\n"; $ foo Hello world $ ls -l bar lrwxrwxrwx 1 adefaria Domain U 86 Feb 21 10:38 bar -> foo* $ bar Can't open perl script "./bar": No such file or directory Now if I change the shebang line to #!/bin/perl then everything works but as I said I need to use CQPerl.
