Re^5: Double Click of Death on Perl Web Server

Thank you ikegami for explaining the situation. I was following Perl Cookbook examples that don't check $server->accept or $client->close:


while (my $client = $server->accept) {
  ...
  $client->close;
  undef $client;
}

Time to read: 16.15. Installing a Signal Handler

Thanks again!
