Cannot execute perl script in Mac OS X using $./script_name
|
Can't Post

Hi, I hope you can help me, I looked for an answer in many places and I couldn't find an answer. When I try to execute a perl script in the shell as $./script_name the shell tells that "cannot execute binary file". However, if I run it as $perl script_name , it works OK. File permissions are set to 755. #!/usr/bin/perl line is also correct ($whereis perl -> /usr/bin/perl) I cannot figure out what is wrong, as some scripts that I wrote some time ago run equally well with $script_name and with $perl script_name I will really appreciate your help!! Thanks, Roger
