Crontab & Procmail problem

[Prajakti Joshi]

Hi,
I'm trying to run a perl script through the procmail in a crontab. But I'm getting an error "Error writing to file", when the cron runs. However, when I run the same script from command line, it works fine, without any errors.
Following is the procmailrc file :

## Set on when debugging
VERBOSE=on
## Log File
LOGFILE=/tmp/Mail-parvez.log
:0 
* ^From.*grathor
{
  :0 c
       /home/httpd/html/IFUND2/MAIL/MESSAGE
 :0 
 | /home/httpd/cgi-bin/IFUND2/lib/ParseMail.pl
}

I'm getting the error when it tries to run ParseMail.pl.
Can anyone help me out on this?
Thanks,
Prajakti.

Look in parsemail.pl and see if it's making any assumptions about what the current working directory may be (relative paths).

Hi,
Actually I'm calling a script from ParseMail.pl, which in turn uses Metamail along with "expect". Following is the code in the script :

#!/bin/sh
# \
exec expect "$0" ${1+"$@"}
set msg [lindex $argv 0]
##send_user MessageIs$msg\n
set path "/home/httpd/html/IFUND2/MAIL/FILE"
##send_user PathIs$path\n\n
#echo "Before spawn" >> FirstFile.txt
spawn metamail -w [lindex $argv 0]
expect "Filename:"
send "$path/file1\r"
expect "Filename:"
send "$path/file2\r"
expect "Filename:"
send "$path/file3\r"
expect "Filename:"
send "$path/file4\r"
expect "Filename:"
send "$path/file5\r"
expect eof

When it's run manually, the script works fine, but when set in a cron, it doesn't seem to work.
Thanks,
