Re: using opendir in CGI

Why don't you get Perl to tell you why it isn't working? Just change:

opendir(TRACKING, "R:\\");
[download]

opendir(TRACKING, "R:\\") or die "could not opendir because $!";
[download]

Always check the results from system commands - it saves time in the long run :-)

Thank you .. I didn't know I could do that. it says .. no such file or directory.. .which may prove my earlier theory that it doesn't know about anything outside of the webserver directory context.	[reply]
