Hi,
I am trying to get the lastuser of a file in TS 6+ on a solaris server. I used the following command from the command prompt and I get correct result.
iwattrib (full file path) lastuser

But when I put this into perl file and keep it in /httpd/iw-bin it doesn't work
There was another command in the same perl file for metadata extraction from a file, it gave no errors
'iwextattr -g TeamSite/Metadata/"Expiration Date"' . ' '.(full file path);

Now I even tried - iw_cgi_wrapper.cgi/my_perl_file.ipl to invoke the perl file from the command prompt....that too doesn't work well.

My requirement is to call this perl file from a cron job.

please suggest how to proceed.
TIA

Post your script that's calling this command and perhaps someone here can help.

When calling the command are you giving the full path to iwattrib? i.e.

\iw-home\bin\iwattrib ...?

Hi Guys,

-->This is where I am calling the function in my perl script.

for($n = 0; $n < @{$expired_modules}; $n++)
{
$author = &getAuthor(@{$expired_modules}[$n]);
}

-->This is the function being called.

sub getAuthor()
{
# Getting the owner of the expired file
-->This is the command creating errors
$cmd = "iwattrib @_[0] lastuser";
$author = `$cmd`;

($temp,$author) = split /\\/ , $author;
chomp($author);
return $author;
}

As I said in my previous post, try including the full path to iwattrib. If that doesn't work, make sure you have the full file path correct by adding some logging to your script.

Also, please register and don't post as Guest.

$cmd = TeamSite::Config::iwgethome() . "/bin/iwattrib @_[0] lastuser";

should help you. You'll need to declare a "use" statement for TeamSite::Config though if it isn't already there (which it probably should be anyway).

ya i am passing the full path of the file on server

eg: "/fms/iwmnt/FMS/main/www/french_direct/dev/STAGING/templatedata/modules/section_heading/data/test1.dcr"

Not the full path to the file -- the full path to the executable. It's bad programming practice to rely on environment variables like PATH in order to execute a command (especially when they aren't even there, in this case). So,

$cmd = "iwattrib @_[0] lastuser";

"iwattrib" needs to be prefixed with the absolute directory that contains the command.
