Bryan, Problem solved. At your suggestion, I installed MARC::Record 1.39_02, and it's working fine. I was wrong about having installed version 2.0 in the past. When I looked at my old notes, I saw that I wasn't able to install version 2.0 because of Perl 5.8.0. - which makes sense. That's what I

I am in the process of rebuilding my web site after a phishing site break-in (yikes!). The site is fine now, and secure, but for some reason I can't get MARC::Record-2.0.0 to install.

Practicality of using DB_File on a Perl-based book site?

I'm designing a web site that will display MARC authority files onscreen. I use a Perl hash that's tied to a (read-only) Berkeley DB_file, and it works nicely. How practical is this approach if there's going to be moderate traffic on a site? My DB_FILE is about 200MB, but of course Perl brings o

Mike, I tried both of your suggested fixes (changing Name to LocalName, and running the updated patch), but no luck. I still get no error messages in the error log, but the program silently fails to print a report. If I manually remove the "mx:" namespace strings from all the tags, I can process t

. As far as the name authorities go, if I can't get MARC::File::XML to process them, I can always use XML::Tokeparser. Not as elegant, but it would get the job done. - Chris -Original Message- From: Jonathan Gorman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, June 09, 2008 4:43 PM To:
