problem with exec - [SOLVED]

hi guys,
does anyone know when we use exec in which path it's considered?

to be clearer:
i have the following shell script:

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh
rm -f somePage.txt
wget --user-agent='"Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1)"' -k  -K -e robots=off  -O ~/eggdrop/scripts/somePage.txt www.somepage.com

if i execute this script from the shell, it works
when i use exec and run it from the bot, i get

Tcl error [dl_page]: wget: not found

any idea why?

thanks.

my guess is that eggdrop sees another enviroment PATH. You can check it within the bot as 'set env(PATH)' and on sh/bash via 'export | grep PATH'. Alternately just use full paths

.

works great
