Perl script is not executable or doesn't exist.

Different environments? ie path setting not including the path to the perl interpreter?
Cronjobs usually only have the environment set from /etc/rc unless other data is explicitly included in the different crontab files...

No, I am sure, I have ran eggdrop with my account and the crontab is owned by my accout. So when Ilogin with root and type crontab -u myaccaout i see the cronjob of my account? Any suggestions?

maybe - just a rough guess - you are running eggdrop using ./eggdrop with a different user that has the privileges to access the file and the user you are using to run eggdrop from crontab doesnt?

Hi there, I have add a sysinfo.tcl wich use a perl script and when crontab strarts my eggdrop, the bot tells me "Perl script is not executable or doesn't exist.", but when I start my bot manually with command "./eggdrop" then the perl script of sysinfo.tcl works fine. Can anybody help me? Thanks.
