Call a Perl script within a bash script and store the ouput in a .txt file
I'm attempting to write a bash script that will create a network between virtual machines. It accepts three arguments: an RSpec that describes the network topology, and two list of machines (servers and clients).
I have a (working) Perl script that I want to call. This Perl script takes an RSpec and finds the machine names and/or IP addresses, and prints them to the STDOUT.
What I want to happen is for the bash script to call the perl script (which is in a subdirectory), and pipe the output to a .txt file. Right now, I keep getting an error saying the perl script doesn't exist, though I am giving it the full pathname.
This is the bash script:
The error I'm getting is:
If it helps any, I'm using ubuntu on a VirtualBox VM (physical machine is a MacBook Pro). (The starred out text was a folder containing my name...)
Any and all help (and explanations, too) would be greatly appreciated. I'm relatively new to both perl and bash (only been using these languages for a few months).
I am aware that there are other threads dealing with similar topics, but I could not find one that suited this problem specifically.
