Re: Re: Using Fcntl in CGI (20 questions)

Thanks for your reply. I'm not trying to be adversarial here. I'm relatively new to Perl and do not know all the debugging methods. But you are correct in that I should have checked the Apache error logs sooner. I apologize for that. Here is the log that is generated. note: I changed the IP's to x's. They are not that way in the log.

I'm not trying to win anything. Just trying to get my work done. I really love perlmonks and respect all of you who frequent this site and make it such a wonderful community and resource. Thanks for all the help. I'm not trying to be a jerk or seem unappreciative.

Oh, I didn't think you were trying to be adversarial or trying to "win" anything. It was just a (lame) joke in my part. So modify your script to report "@INC", $INC{"Fcntl.pm"}, and $INC{"XSLoader.pm"} and run it from the command line and run it from CGI (with the line that breaks it commented out -- it will report blank values for those last two items, that is okay). Then you'll know where the working version is loading XSLoader.pm from, which Fcntl.pm it is using (you already know from the above which Fcntl.pm the CGI script is using), and why one finds it and the other doesn't (because "@INC" will be different between the two). What to do next depends on what you find. - tye	[reply]

AHA! For some reason, there are 2 perl installations on this machine (the other was on a different drive). And I pointed the scripts to the incorrect one. When pointing to the correct one, it loads just fine. Everyone- Thank you for all your help!	[reply]
