ya i used system(), but i need to generate the output of the shell script to a log file also. i do not know how to send the output of the shell script to a log file from system command.

Code:
$return = system("sh", "shell_script.sh", $NAME, $FileName);

i want to send the output to a log file..

Code:
$return = system("sh", "shell_script.sh", $NAME, $FileName, >/app/home/$NAME/output.log, 2>/app/home/$NAME/error.err);

but the command gives an error.

ok i got the where i did wrong.. i need to include ">/app/home/$NAME/output.log" and "2>/app/home/$NAME/error.err" in double quotes.
