RE: Windows popup/message box?


Igor,

I investigated this issue a little more. I changed my cron command to:
* * * * * perl -e 'use GD;' >& /usr/tmp/test.log

Here is the content of the test.log file:

"Can't load '/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8/cygwin/auto/GD/GD.dll' for
module GD: No such file or directory at
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8/cygwin/DynaLoader.pm line 230.
 at -e line 1
Compilation failed in require at -e line 1.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at -e line 1."


The only issue here that the perl module tries to load a dll file. It
works just fine from the command line. 

I think that it is a bug of cygwin cron or cygwin perl.

I have also tried to use the perl2exe for this command but it didn't
work. Perl2exe doesn't work with cygwin perl. 

I am in a dead end. 

Thanks for the help,
Liora

Liora,

Sorry, no, I didn't spend much more time on this, as it wasn't something
that affected me directly, but rather a curious failure I've discovered
by
accident.  Since you're obviously interested in getting this fixed,
perhaps you could help Reini track this down further.

And, to answer Reini's question: I still see the same problem after a
rebaseall.  You might want to try this anyway, to see if it fixes things
for you.
	Igor
