I have such a simple problem but I can not resolve it and do not know where else to turn.
I have a simple automated batch script that calls a perl script to run daily.
When the script runs I get the error ‘the system cannot find the path specified’
When I hit Return the script will in fact run, but then I can not automate the script to run if it requires human intervention.
Here’s the contents of the .bat file:
call “c:\Perl\bin\perl.exe” “c:\perlscripts\perlname.pl”
Simple as that. I’ve checked the paths, the filename…I’m stumped. What have I overlooked?
