How to run a perl script inside another perl script

Question

I have two Perl scripts and want to use one script from another.

The scripts are called script1.pl and script2.pl.

I want to run the below command inside script1.pl :

/home/user/script2.pl /var/log/fw_log error >>/tmp/error.log

Answer 1

You can do this with the Perl's built-in 'system' function:

system "/home/user/script2.pl /var/log/fw_log error >>/tmp/error.log";
