Here is a portion of my script.  The system() call executes successfully 
once, then script crashes.  Any ideas why this would happen.  This script 
has run without issue on platform where all above software was older versions.
  my $val='A B C';  my $sql="UPDATE suit_query SET head=?,neck=? WHERE username=? AND qry=?";
$sth=$dbc->prepare($sql); foreach my $h (split(' ',$val)) {    foreach my $n (split(' ',$val)) {      $sth->execute(
"$h%","$n%", $usr, $qry );      $cmd="(date;nice -15 ./suits.pl $dbx $dbn $usr $qry;date)";      print( "$cmd >
txt/$usr.$qry$h$n\n");      system( "$cmd > txt/$usr.$qry$h$n" );    }  }  $dbc->disconnect();
 

Output from script:

(date;nice -15 ./suits.pl RL fbax Combined 200;date) > txt/Combined.200AA

/suits.pl is a long running script and also accesses pg database through 
DBD-pg...
