Try using the full path to the procheck program. Your bash profile is not going to help you here.

Please do the following: `#!/usr/bin/perl $pdbfile = $ARGV[0]; print "path=$ENV{PATH}\n"; print "procheck $pdbfile 1.0\n"; #system("procheck $pdbfile 1.0");` [download] Does `$pdbfile` contain the value you expect? Does the path contain the location of `procheck`? Are there any spaces in the value of `$pdbfile`?	[reply] [d/l] [select]
