[mrtg] Re: perl script cannot be executed by MRTG

[xzhao2]

Thanks.
I already made prog-to-run executable for everyone. When I run MRTG, it says 
there are some syntax errors in the script, at the same time, MRTG generates a 
*.maxO file in ThreshDir. If I run MRTG again, no error. If I delete the 
*.maxO temporary file in ThreshDir and run MRTG again, it mentions the same 
syntax error.
Still, MRTG is not treating the script as perl. By the way, perl exists in 
/usr/local. No problem with that.
TIA. Simon
