Re: perl script to run as non-root

[karlgoethebier]

Hint from Dr. Wisenheimer:

Writing everything on one line results in negative XPs!

Compare:

Thanks for your replies, The only difference I find is when I run this command as "root' I get the below output:

perl -e 'print join("\n",@INC)' 
/usr/local/lib64/perl5 
/usr/local/share/perl5 
/usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl 
/usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl 
/usr/lib64/perl5 
/usr/share/perl5

While I run as non-root I get the below output:

perl -e 'print join("\n",@INC)' 
/opt/nms/perl/lib 
/opt/nms/perl/lib64/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi 
/opt/nms/perl/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8 
/opt/nms/perl/lib/perl5/site_perl 
/usr/local/lib64/perl5 
/usr/local/share/perl5 
/usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl 
/usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl 
/usr/lib64/perl5 
/usr/share/perl5

Actually there is no perl folder inside the /opt/nms/ but not sure how it is showing that. Will that be an issue? But apart from that I checked the permission of Sybase.pm and the path where the Sybase.pm is all seems to be fine. Thanks.

Thanks for your replies, i think i found what is my problem but I am bit new to this.

I have the environment variable PERL5LIB to my preferred location which is /opt/nms/perl/lib/

Where can i get the perl 5.10.1 x86_64-linux-thread-multi, can you please help here

I need another info if i get the perl 5.10.1 x86_64-linux-thread-multi install as non-root, and then install DBI and DBD as non-root how to ensure that these libraries will sit only inside the PERL5LIB folder only.

Thanks bunch.

Hi Friends, I got it fixed. Installed the DBI, DBD:sybase modules and freetds modules and all is fine now. Thank you for all the support and the guidance/ideas that you gave me, it was really helpful

I just saw you fixed it. Anyway, just for completeness: see Re: Simultaneously reading from a file and serving data.
