Issue/Introduction

When running startSS.pl we are seeing:

"Can't locate Getopt/Long.pm:   /usr/local/share/perl5/Getopt/Long.pm: Permission denied at ./startSS.pl line 3."

"Can't locate Getopt/Long.pm:   /usr/local/lib64/perl5/Getopt/Long.pm: Permission denied at ./startSS.pl line 3."

Resolution

Fix the permissions issue by running:

chmod -R 755 /usr/local/share/perl5

chmod -R 755 /usr/local/lib64/perl5

 

... and startSS.pl works as expected
