I experienced a very similar problem last week. In fact, it was the reason I joined this mailing list. I never did get a satisfactory answer, and I do not think anyone really understood my problem. Although I have learned a bunch of other good stuff from this list, I never solved my original problem. In my case, an old CGI script that had worked for a year (actually, a bunch of similar such CGI scripts) behaved as you describe. After I upgraded to Redhat 9 for security reasons, the upgrade to perl-5.8.0-88.3 that came along for the ride with rh9 caused this problem to occur. I sure would like a solution. > On Mon, 2003-12-08 at 01:06, Joel Newkirk wrote: > > I've run into a problem.
