[Cronw-devel] installing cronw problem

[Orlando R. <rei...@gm...>]

Hi, I'm sorry to be asking this, and probably this has been asked in the
past.

I'm not using activate state perl but a perl that was compiled by my company
in a windows environment.

I added ppm support and all the modules that cronw needs are installed.

But I just can't get the cronw service to start...

I have changed the log.conf

log4perl.logger.cronw.cronService-pl  = DEBUG, log
log4perl.logger.cronw.Crontab-pm      = DEBUG, log

And this is all I get in the error messages (log file) when invoked
manually.

I'm trying from the command line to call the application, doing so by
executing what is in the windows service.
c:\perl\bin\perl.exe "C:\CRONw_2.0\cronService.pl"
--crontab="C:\CRONw_2.0\crontab.txt"

I have tried with active state perl and with our own perl.

The modules installation proceeds in both versions (although it works in a
different manner).

I have Oracle10G installed, in the beginning, I thought this might be a
problem due to Oracle10g setting up PERL5LIB, and I guess the reason for the
service not starting is related to that. But if I call it by manually it
also doesn't work...

Ive read somewhere there is some problem with perl 5.8.8 ?

Can someone just give me some directions on how to fix this?

Best regards,

Orlando
