I already replied to my typos.
But still the exception is thrown every codesetup I use.

Filip,

the perl executable itself will be in somewhere like /usr/bin/perl (type 'which perl'). It looks like you'd need uppercase 'V' as the argument, I assume this was a typo. (no idea if the rest will work or not, I only scanned through your email...)

Good evening (for my region),

I am currently working on a small project to manage the different builds of perl and its modules. Since it is such a hassle to find/ install PerlModules and newer builds of Perl itself.

I am trying to retrieve all paths that perl uses to retrieve modules.
I found the command: "perl -v". I know how to parse this, but how do I get it inside my Cocoa application?

I have tried to following:

NSTask *task = [[[NSTask alloc] init] autorelease];
	[task setLaunchPath:@"/System/Library/Perl/5.8.8"];
	[task setArguments:[NSArray arrayWithObject:@"-v"]];
	[task launch];
	[task waitUntilExit];

But it seems to get the same exception every time I try this, even in different configs.

2008-12-08 23:15:11.459 PerlManager[924:203] *** NSTask: Task create for path '/System/Library/Perl/5.8.8' failed: 13, "Permission denied". Terminating temporary process.

Any ideas on how to fix my problem ?

Thank you,
