in reply to large file uploads - timeout

Ehm... what about giving some details?

Like, are you talking about a CGI script? Are you using CGI.pm?

Or is it a demon, and you're just reading from a socket?

    It is a CGI script. I am using CGI.pm to get the file handle ($file).

      Are you sure you are not hitting the CGI::POST_MAX limit? Have you checked cgi_error()? Have you tried a dump of STDIN to STDOUT (ie your uploaded file back to the browser) to see what is happening. CGI::Simple has much better file upload error reporting than CGI.pm and uses the same interface so this may be an easy solution to diagnose the problem.

      cheers

        I don't think I am hitting that limit. I just tried it with a different web browser and everything worked without complications.
