  • Alter the permissions of the script so that Nagios--or whatever other service that needs to run the script--can run the script. –  Oct 24 '11 at 08:49
  • how do i alter the permissions of the script ?? :( – Syed Raza Oct 24 '11 at 08:52
  • Take a look at `man chmod` (in particular, the first manual page). –  Oct 24 '11 at 08:54
  • man chmod ??? what is it i haven't understand please let me know in detail about it ! – Syed Raza Oct 24 '11 at 09:12
  • Type `man chmod` on the command line and hit enter. If you're presented with a choice as to which manual page (aka man page) to use, select the first one. Documentation is your friend. Use it. –  Oct 24 '11 at 09:24
  • now i am getting error "unrecognize character \xE2 at./check_test.pl line 6" ??? what is the error my code is define above??? – Syed Raza Oct 24 '11 at 09:30
  • Does line 6 of your script correspond to the sixth line of code that you've posted above? –  Oct 24 '11 at 09:34
  • What is the encoding of `check_test.pl`? Try `use utf8;`. –  Oct 24 '11 at 10:13
  • i have got the error my code is fine actually i copy paste it thats why is was giving error but when i type it it goes fine ! – Syed Raza Oct 24 '11 at 10:38

I think your script needs execution permission:

chmod +x check_test.pl
