https://github.com/dfabulich/genrule_example/blob/master/BUILD is copied and pasted from the documentation http://bazel.io/docs/be/general.html#genrule

genrule(
    name = "foo",
    srcs = [],
    outs = ["foo.h"],
    cmd = "$(location create_foo.pl) > \"$@\"",
    tools = ["create_foo.pl"],
)

create_foo.pl is a one-line script.

https://github.com/dfabulich/genrule_example/blob/master/create_foo.pl

#!/usr/bin/env perl

print "FOO\n"

But when I try to run it, my build fails.

$ bazel build //:foo
INFO: Found 1 target...
INFO: From Executing genrule //:foo:
/bin/bash: create_foo.pl: command not found
ERROR: /private/tmp/tp/genrule_example/BUILD:1:1: Executing genrule //:foo failed: bash failed: error executing command /bin/bash -c 'source external/bazel_tools/tools/genrule/genrule-setup.sh; create_foo.pl > "bazel-out/local_darwin-fastbuild/genfiles/foo.h"': com.google.devtools.build.lib.shell.BadExitStatusException: Process exited with status 127.

Yeah, the command should start with "./" or use "perl" explicitly.

Is this the same issue as #347?

[dfabulich]

@bsilver8192 Yes, I believe so.

This is now fixed per updated doc
