Perl Not ableto run system command of network.	Can't Post

Hello all,

I am trying to generate a keyring file from eclipse utility.
I am able to generate the same one through command prompt by using this command imutilsc saveCredential -url htttps:/urltoconnect -userName username -userPassword password -keyring /tmp/keyring but when i run the same thr perl script it gives me error:

Cannot connect to the URL.
- Verify that the URL is correct.
- Verify that the user name and password are correct.
- Verify that you can access the network.

my perl code:
$cmd = "imutilsc saveCredential -url htttps:/urltoconnect -userName username -userPassword password -keyring /tmp/keyring";

chdir('/opt/ibm/InstallationManager/eclipse/tools') or die $!;
exec "$cmd" or die $!;

please help me..

my perl code:
$cmd = "imutilsc saveCredential -url htttps:/urltoconnect -userName username -userPassword password -keyring /tmp/keyring";

chdir('/opt/ibm/InstallationManager/eclipse/tools') or die $!;
exec "$cmd" or die $!;

Url's contain two slashes:
htttps://urltoconnect

Secondly, do you want the system call to return to the perl script?
If so, use system($cmd) instead of exec - exec runs the cmd and never returns to the script.

perldoc -f exec
perldoc -f system

hope that helps
