No offence linuxkid ... this is just about stating the problem clearly.

1) What is in test.sh ?

2) Example 1
Which shell is running at the time the command is issued?
Is it "tcsh"?
What does "ps" output?
What happened when the script ran?

3) Example 2
Which shell is started by running "sh" ?
A poster on your previous thread though that it was Bourne Shell. If so, this is a very old Solaris. Which version of Solaris?
What does "uname -a" output?
What happened when the script ran?

I was confused by you having "tcsh" because I though that is was the default shell on old Apple MACs and freeBSD. i.e. not Solaris.

The "C" shells (such as csh, tcsh) are quite different from other common Shells such as: Bourne Shell, Korn Shell, bash, Posx Shell etc..

CPANPLUS::Shell(3pm)					 Perl Programmers Reference Guide				      CPANPLUS::Shell(3pm)

NAME

       CPANPLUS::Shell - base class for CPANPLUS shells

SYNOPSIS

	   use CPANPLUS::Shell; 	    # load the shell indicated by your
					    # config -- defaults to
					    # CPANPLUS::Shell::Default

	   use CPANPLUS::Shell qw[Classic]  # load CPANPLUS::Shell::Classic;

	   my $ui      = CPANPLUS::Shell->new();
	   my $name    = $ui->which;	    # Find out what shell you loaded

	   $ui->shell;			    # run the ui shell

DESCRIPTION

       This module is the generic loading (and base class) for all "CPANPLUS" shells. Through this module you can load any installed "CPANPLUS"
       shell.

       Just about all the functionality is provided by the shell that you have loaded, and not by this class (which merely functions as a generic
       loading class), so please consult the documentation of your shell of choice.

       Please report bugs or other issues to <bug-cpanplus@rt.cpan.org<gt>.
