Perl & cron job environmental variablesby Anonymous Monk |

Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
I have to use Perl in a "cron" job. However, my environmental variables seem not to export to Perl (but they do seem to export to csh.) Running the following "cron" job: /usr/bin/csh -c printenv Produces the correct set of environmental variables. However, the Perl script "cron" job: /home/username/bin/perlprintenv.pl where the code is simply:
produces a much shorter list of variables and a shorter path. I am running Solaris. What is the recommended "fix" for this problem? Is there any easy way to force cron to export all variables?
