Re^6: Cookie->fetch problem

Never seen something like this in the error log before.

Thu Mar 9 12:33:53 2017 manage_users.cgi: $VAR1 = {};

Is that from data dumper?

That is the output from Data::Dumper. You can see the cookies hash (aliased here to `$VAR1`) is empty. Otherwise, it might output something like: `[Thu Mar 9 12:33:53 2017] manage_users.cgi: $VAR1 = {'CGISESSID' => '1 +234deadbeef'};` [download] For a quasi-independent test, what happens when you add the following to your code: `use CGI; my $cgi = CGI->new; warn $_ for $q->cookie();` [download] and see if the CGI object has any cookies in it. #11929 First ask yourself `How would I do this without a computer?' Then have the computer do it the same way.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

$VAR1

+234deadbeef'};

For a quasi-independent test, what happens when you add the following to your code:

use CGI;

my $cgi    = CGI->new;
warn $_ for $q->cookie();
