Perl script works but not via CRON -


i have perl script (which syncs delicious wp) which:

  1. runs via shell
  2. does not run via cron (and dont error)

the thing can think of read config file wrongly but... defined via full path (i think).

i read config file as:

my $config = config::simple->import_from('/home/12345/data/scripts/delicious/wpds.ini',    \my %config);

(i hosted on mediatemple)

does have clue?

update 1: here complete code: http://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/wordpress-23-compatible-wordpress-delicious-daily-synchronization-script/trunk/ (but have added path above configuration file location difference)

update 2: crossposted on https://forums.mediatemple.net/viewtopic.php?pid=31563#p31563

update 3: full path did trick, solved

the difference between cron job , job run shell 'environment'. primary difference profile , not run cron job, environment variables have set in normal shell environment not set same in cron environment - no extensions path, no environment variables identifying delicious and/or wp hosted, etc.

suggestion: create cron job reports environment known file:

env > /home/27632/tmp/env.27632

then see set in own shell environment in comparison. chances are, reveal trouble.

failing that, other environmental differences cron job has no terminal, , has /dev/null input , output - interactive stuff not work well.
