thanks for this suggestion.
here’s what things look like
pipe "$home/perlscripts/filter.sh"
where filter.sh looks like this
#! /bin/sh
/usr/bin/strace -o /home/elastica/filter2.log -A nice -10 /usr/bin/perl /home/elastica/perlscripts/filter.pl
for now seems to be working.
I just have to get more offending messages.
I will say right now though there’s a lot of “ENOENT” errors and this is not unexpected because whenever something has a search path it’s going to try many places to locate something so these kinds of errors are going to be very prevalent when you start tracing.
