ODBC and Sockets (can they function at the same time?)

Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I am making a web server that logs to a access database through ODBC, the server itself works fine, but when I paste in code that I know works PERL just crashes.

Since I have little to no info on the matter, I can answer your question. Yes, Sockets and ODBC can work together. Many times you may connect to your Database using Sockets. As far as your problem, I'm affraid I can't give very good suggestions without more information. Perhaps your program can't find/get a connection to Access? Maybe the path to perl is wrong? The possibilities are endless. Be more specific and we can try and help you with your problem, perhaps you should post to 'SOPW' -- Casey	[reply]

I have the same problem -- I cannot use ODBC after I make a socket conenction. Did you ever solve your problem? If so please email me at kxf@cypress.com Thanks! - Ken Originally posted as a Categorized Answer.	[reply]
