Hi there,
I recently had to update my old cygwin installation to a newer version.
I'm not quite sure what version I updated from or to - but the old
version came with perl 5.6, the one I updated to with version 5.8. This
is also the reason why I had to run the update.
So far so good.
In my perl scripts there are a lot of calls to application installed on
this particular windows system (such as MS compiler or MKS Source
Integrity). On the old cygwin-perl everything was just running fine.
Since I made the update none of those system calls seem to be executed.
I tried running the same command lines from within the cygwin shell -
and they work fine. From within perl they just seem to be ignored. I
don't get any error messaged (at least not from the perl debugger or
the shell). The call itself returns on $? just 256 which I didn't find
anything helpful about.
Do I have to set any permissions to the perl interpreter that existed
prior the update and have been over-written by it?
Can anybody help me?
Cheers,
Mac
