Subject: Problem with #! line using RedHat 7
Message-Id: <97ovnq$5hm$1@news.netmar.com>
I was hoping someone might help me. I've got a very simple Hello World script
written (the script follows):
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use diagnostics;
print "Hello World\n";
When I run "perl hello.pl", everything works fine. I've changed the
permissions of the file hello.pl to be 777, but I am unable to run the
program by simply typing "hello". When I do, I get this message:
bash: hello: command not found
Is there a step I'm missing? I'm reading a freebie online course and it says
all I need to make the script itself executable is to change the permissions,
and to have the #! as the first line. I'd appreciate any help anyone can
provide.
Thanks,
Mark

Perhaps your perl isn't in /usr/bin? Try this:
perl -v # If you get output your PATH is pointing to perl
type perl # this will work if you are in bash...
if the above works you will know the path to perl. Then you just
substitue the path to perl in your "shebang."
#!/usr/funky/path/to/perl -w

It's cause you don't have a file called "hello" .. your script is named
"hello.pl" according to above.. so you need to type -path-/-full file
name- or, in other words
(if you're in the same dir) "./hello.pl"

or . is not in your path in which case you need to type:
"./hello.pl"
in order to run the program.

Of course it doesn't work. It doesn't matter where the hell perl
is, and even if your current directory is in your path, IT WON'T
WORK UNLESS YOU TYPE IN THE NAME OF THE SCRIPT, WHICH IS
hello.pl
AND NOT
hello

That's incorrect. If that was the case, the message would read
bash: hello: No such file or directory
This is a _Unix_ FAQ that a lot of DOS folks get caught by: execution in
the local directory is _disabled_ by default as a security measure. To
execute "hello" from the current directory, the OP needs to type
./hello

As someone else pointed out, the program is actually
called "hello.pl", so we're all wrong (apart from the one
who pointed it out :-)

Either that, or the working directory isn't in your PATH env var. Try this
instead:
./hello
Or, finally, if you created the file using a Mac and saved it to the Unix box,
it may have the wrong kind of end-of-lines.

...which makes this the FOURTH wrong answer, by your count, since it
_still_ will not execute.
./hello.pl
And it may _still_ fail to execute if the path to perl is wrong.

Fine, but you seem to be approaching the problem backwards. The proper
procedure for this is:
1. Replace HTML metacharacters ('<' and '&') in the user input with the
respective entities. This step should be omitted if you _want_ the
users to be able to enter working HTML tags.
2. Replace any plain-text formatting (line and paragraph breaks, etc.)
in the input with the appropriate HTML tags.
In Perl code:
sub text2html {
local $_ = shift;
s/&/&/g; # first entify ampersands..
s/</</g; # ..then rest of metachars
s/[^\S\n]+\n/\n/g; # trim trailing whitespace
s/\n\n+/<\/p><p>/g; # 2 x newline -> paragraph
s/\n/<br>/g; # lone newline -> linebreak
return "<p>$_</p>";
}
This version will remove all newlines from the input, yielding one long
line. It's possible to preserve them, but the regexen get uglier. It
might be easier to re-introduce them afterwards.

You should ask this question in a group that discusses the configuration
of web servers, maybe specifically Apache, probably somewhere in the
comp.infofystems.www.servers.* hierarchy.
Before you do that, though, try to think of a more meaningful subject to
use than 'Question!'.

Not true. I use strict in virtually all of my scripts and I have one
family of scripts in particular that generate dynamic HTML through
the use of templates. The templates themselves are implemented as
pseuedo modules that get "required" in and their "new" method run to
generate some content.
Works fine... lasts a long time.
What in PARTICULAR are you having trouble implementing? Remember that
strict does have some very definite implications and RTFM'ing is a
good thing...

Why think when you can know?
#!/usr/bin/perl -wT
use CGI qw(:standard);
use strict;
print header;
print start_html(-title => 'A test');
print h1('Hello');
print end_html, "\n";

Anything is possible (though probably not what you want).
Here's my files.pl file:
----------------------------------
$id = "hello world";
1;
----------------------------------
You could use strict and feel good about it by issuing:
-----------------------------------
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
BEGIN { require 'files.pl';
print "$id\n" if $id; };
use strict;
exit 1;
------------------------------------
...but then that sort of defeats the purpose of strict :-P
Whomever told you that you can't use strict when requiring other
scripts is probably just lazy (and not in a virtuous way).
Tell us a little more about what you are trying to do and consider
providing examples. There are issues when pulling in the variables into
your namespace after require-ing them under use strict; and that's
probably what the lazy programmer didn't reveal.
given the same files.pl file...
Your script contains:
------------------------
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
require "files.pl";
my $id;
{ # I'm only going to use $main'id once.
# so we'll shut off warnings in here.
$^W = 0;
$id = $main'id;
}
print "$id\n";
exit 1;

Subject: Verifying pgp signed message?
Message-Id: <3aa00345.104027169@netnews.worldnet.att.net>
Hi,
I'm looking for code to verify a pgp signed string. I'm
writing cgi software and have a pgp signed string with the key
from someone. How can I simply verify the string is
signed. Any modules to do this? TIA, tw

Administrivia:
The Perl-Users Digest is a retransmission of the USENET newsgroup
comp.lang.perl.misc. For subscription or unsubscription requests, send
the single line:
subscribe perl-users
or:
unsubscribe perl-users
to almanac@ruby.oce.orst.edu.
| NOTE: The mail to news gateway, and thus the ability to submit articles
| through this service to the newsgroup, has been removed. I do not have
| time to individually vet each article to make sure that someone isn't
| abusing the service, and I no longer have any desire to waste my time
| dealing with the campus admins when some fool complains to them about an
| article that has come through the gateway instead of complaining
| to the source.
To submit articles to comp.lang.perl.announce, send your article to
clpa@perl.com.
To request back copies (available for a week or so), send your request
to almanac@ruby.oce.orst.edu with the command "send perl-users x.y",
where x is the volume number and y is the issue number.
For other requests pertaining to the digest, send mail to
perl-users-request@ruby.oce.orst.edu. Do not waste your time or mine
sending perl questions to the -request address, I don't have time to
answer them even if I did know the answer.
