1) The error doesn't mention . So aparently current directory is not searched. You may add it with use lib '.'; I do not recommend this though. 2) The current directory is NOT guaranteed to be the directory where the script is stored. Use use FindBin qw($Bin); to find you what the directory is and use lib $Bin; to add it to @INC. I do not recommend this. 3) It's not the best idea to store the libraries in the same directory as the CGI scripts. Create a separate directory inaccessible via Web for the libraries and add THAT directory to @INC. Eg. if your scripts are in /home/david/cgi store the libraries in /home/david/perl-lib and add either use lib '/home/david/perl-lib'; or use FindBin qw($Bin); use lib $Bin.'/../perl-lib'; HTH, Jenda ===== [EMAIL PROTECTED] === http://Jenda.Krynicky.cz ===== When it comes to wine, women and song, wizards are allowed to get drunk and croon as much as they like. -- Terry Pratchett in Sourcery -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
