PERL scripts in Redhat

[nemo1]

Hi guys, I'm new to PERL and Redhat. I have trouble installing perl, i tried which perl command and also perl -v but gives message no perl in...... perl -v gives this message command not found. I actually need to run a perl script (.pl) in Redhat but failed after many attempts. Please help

Thanks in advance.

try this command

# rpm -qa | grep perl

it will tell you if there is any perl in the machine or not.
also try
# perl --version

don't type the hash, it means you have totype it into the shell.

to run the perlscript give it permission i.e. right click onto it go to it's properties nad then permissions and the check the allow exacuting the file as a progam.
and then perl myPerlScript.pl

try this command

# rpm -qa | grep perl
it will tell you if there is any perl in the machine or not.

Tried this command, it gives many lines of words starting with perl i.e:
perl-html....
perl-libw ww...
perl-xml....
perl-5.8.0-88...
and many more

also try
# perl --version

don't type the hash, it means you have totype it into the shell.

this one gives--> bash: perl: command not found

execute is checked.
