Question

I have a perl script which works fine, when run manually, however it’s not running with cron. My perl script has following statement due to which it’s not working [find from log file] –push(@INC, '/var/a.pm');
I don’t know how to fix it, please help me out.

Answer 1

You should push a directory name into the @INC directory, not a file name. Try this:

BEGIN { push @INC, '/var'; }; ## use BEGIN so we can "use" modules
## now this will work
use a;

If that doesn’t work, you will need to be more descriptive about the error that you are receiving.
