CFEXECUTE on Solaris Not Working

[gburgmalbert]

I'm trying to get a simple perl script to run via CFEXECUTE on a Unix box running CFMX 7.02 and have not been successful. I have spent considerable time searching and have not found a working solution.

I have full control of the box and it's in a development environment behind a firewall. I've set permissions wide-open, moved the file, etc. and have not been able to get the cfexecute to work. The output file is blank. The file works on our CF5 instance (also unix).
Any help would be appreciated.

This is a simple perl script that simply inserts a record in an Oracle database - and works fine from the command line as the user the runs CF on the box. This is a basic test script I wrote to debug this issue.

Here is the command:
<CFEXECUTE name="/disk1/cnav0/bin/it_tools/test_script.pl"
outputfile="/tmp/test_script.txt"
timeout="30">
</CFEXECUTE>

I have tried:
<CFEXECUTE
name="/usr/local/bin/perl"
arguments="/disk1/cnav0/bin/it_tools/test_script.pl"
outputfile="/tmp/test_script.txt"
timeout="30">
</CFEXECUTE>

Make sure that you don't forget case sensitivity since you are dealing with Unix.

proper case is being used

Has cfexecute on the CFMX 7.02 box been disabled? Can you do a real basic cfexecute, like:

<cfexecute name="echo" arguments="foo" outputfile="/tmp/testoutput.txt" timeout="30" />

Looks like it is a path issue. I hate building new boxes.

Thanks for helping.
