Shell Programming and Scripting

Hi,

I am having a problem running multiple commands in a autosys command line. For example I would like to run a perl script first and then add sleep command after that in the same autosys job like below


insert_job: xxxxxxxxx
command: `perlscript.pl ; sleep 180`

Perlscript.pl is a perl script. To make this question as simple as possible, the perl script just prints a simple line "Hello World" as shown below


#!/usr/bin/perl
printf ("Hello WORLD\n");
exit(0);


When I run the above autosys job, it appears to work and sleeps for 180 seconds / 3 minutes. But after 3 minutes it fails with the error in the error log reading "/bin/sh: line 0: exec: Hello: not found"
Why does this happen. Is there any other way of having mutiple commands in a Autosys commanline ?



Your help is greatly appreciated.

thanks
