I think the error message is being pretty darn helpful on its own. First of all, are you sure you don't mean "/home/anish/temp/client.html"? Template Toolkit is complaining that you shouldn't use absolute paths -- that is, filenames that start at the root directory. It wants relative paths -- filenames that start "here" like this: "temp/client.html" TT2 would then look through all the TEMPLATE_PATH directories for that template. If you want absolute paths to be allowed, set the ABSOLUTE option. $template = Template->new( ... ABSOLUTE => 1 ... ) Consult the Template manual. -- rjbs
