It doesn't matter how to fix Opera, but how can I work this situation around ?
Set timeout via signals ? Or there is another well-known solution ?
using SIGALRM is documented here:
http://perl.apache.org/docs/1.0/guide/debug.html#Handling_Server_Timeout_Cases_and_Working_with__SIG_ALRM_
Though it should be mentioned that starting from 5.8.0 perl uses "safe" signals delivery approach - i.e. it will deliver the signal only between the OPs and never during the OP, so if the function blocks forever inside an OP it's quite possible that the signal will never be delivered. But according to:
http://www.perldoc.com/perl5.8.0/pod/perldelta.html#Safe-Signals
"breaking out from potentially blocking operations should still work, though."
It probably means that SIGALRM is exempted from this change. Please give it a try and report back your findings. __________________________________________________________________ Stas Bekman JAm_pH ------> Just Another mod_perl Hacker http://stason.org/ mod_perl Guide ---> http://perl.apache.org mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://use.perl.org http://apacheweek.com http://modperlbook.org http://apache.org http://ticketmaster.com
