isuues when upgrading to Version :5.0.2.0 7003 200

we have upgraded the teamsite from 5.0.1 to Version:5.0.2.0 7003 20020311. after the upgrade we cannot run any files with .pl extension.
i am also curious of iwextattr -s as wether this option will work in 5.0.2.
please help me if any one have any knowledge of the similar problems.

thanks in advance

What is happening when you try to run the files with .pl ? Where is iw-perl ? check to see the proper path for perl
is in the .pl files (should be #!../../iw-perl/bin/iwperl or something like that)

You also did not mention what OS (SOlaris or 2K)

Finally I have 5.5.2 and iwextattr -s works just peachy here.

I am on Windows NT. the workflows which generate archive dcr's and asp's are not working and all the workflows are working.
the reason i am asking wether .pl files get changed is the archive workflows have an external task which hit .pl while creating archive dcr's.
i take back the iwextattr -s issue as it is working for all other workflows.

i checked the perl path $iwhome\\iw-perl\\bin\\iwperl and it is working for all other workflows.

does the permissions get changed when we did our upgrade and also the same archive workflow works fine in production
we did the upgrade in test enviornment

please let me know if you need any other information

Can you find a way to run the commands from DOS ? They probably will not work (due to environment issues) but the errors generated may lead somewhere.

Check the permissions on the files, read & execute is on ?

What else change in the install ? $IW-HOME in the same spot ? Sometimes it gets hardcoded into PERL scripts and then when you move it (and thus PERL) you are hosed.

Are the WFs kicking off any PERL scripts ? Write a stub that echos info to a file (starting with one of the scripts that is not working) to debug.
