PL/PerlU problems executing other scripts


Hi,

I have a problem with a PL/PerlU function trying to execute an external
perl script.

The script is suid to a non-root user and I am executing it in the
PL/PerlU function as so :

$rc = system "/usr/bin/suidperl", "-T", "/usr/local/bin/script.pl";

The script doesn't go off, and the return code is printed out as 6400.
Executing the same script this way from the command line or a standalone
perl interpreter runs just fine.

I am running the Redhat Database version of Postgres (which equates to
7.2.3) on Redhat 8.0.

Any help would be appreciated.

TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command
(send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to ma*******@postgresql.org)
