wrong path
hello buddy,
I parsed your code and practically everything seemed to be correct.
I feel you there is something wrong with the interpreter line.
check the path of your perl binary aka #which perl
so the first line should be
#!<the_actual_path_that_is_returned_by_which perl>
probably in your earlier env you would have been having this path
/usr/bin/perl
but perl is installed in some other dir.
correct the first (interpreter line ) as stated above and your code will run fine.
Hope you get it working.
ttyl

mysql_zap

MYSQL_ZAP(1)						       MySQL Database System						      MYSQL_ZAP(1)

NAME

       mysql_zap - kill processes that match a pattern

SYNOPSIS

       mysql_zap [-signal] [-?Ift] pattern

DESCRIPTION

       mysql_zap kills processes that match a pattern. It uses the ps command and Unix signals, so it runs on Unix and Unix-like systems.

       Invoke mysql_zap like this:

	   shell> mysql_zap [-signal] [-?Ift] pattern

       A process matches if its output line from the ps command contains the pattern. By default, mysql_zap asks for confirmation for each
       process. Respond y to kill the process, or q to exit mysql_zap. For any other response, mysql_zap does not attempt to kill the process.

       If the -signal option is given, it specifies the name or number of the signal to send to each process. Otherwise, mysql_zap tries first
       with TERM (signal 15) and then with KILL (signal 9).

       mysql_zap supports the following additional options:

       o   --help, -?, -I

	   Display a help message and exit.

       o   -f

	   Force mode.	mysql_zap attempts to kill each process without confirmation.

       o   -t

	   Test mode. Display information about each process but do not kill it.
