I've got a small perl script which has been giving me an error, so I made a copy of it and began removing large chunks of it. Believe it or not, I am now left with a "Hello, World!" script that's giving me errors?
#!/usr/bin/perl
print "Hello, world!\n";
and the error I get is
$ ./test.pl
bash: ./test.pl: No such file or directory
Want to know what's even funnier? If I run this script with "-w" then it runs fine.
I've typed & retyped the #!/usr/bin/perl several times to make sure there werent' any funky characters in there.
What's going on? This must be something with my environment, and not the script?

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
