What is the path to Perl on your servers?

The path to access our Perl installation on our servers is:

/usr/bin/perl

You can find information on the paths to other useful programs through the eXtend Control Panel:

  1. Log into your eXtend Control Panel
  2. Click ‘Paths and Versions’ under ‘Website Help & Diagnostics’
  3. You will now see the paths to programs as well as the latest versions installed

Please note that if you are writing CGI scripts in Perl, the first line of your script should always be the path to Perl, prefixed with #!. Like so:

#!/usr/bin/perl
