• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following: a, b, big, blockquote, br, center, dd, div, dl, dt, em, font, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, hr, i, li, ol, p, pre, readmore, small, span, strike, strong, sub, sup, table, td, th, tr, tt, u, ul
• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible editor intervention).
• Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.

Onward: you question. Is exactly what again? You need to trim your questions down. Find the point that is giving you trouble and write a smaller script to demonstrate the error. However, you have SOOO many problems that i recommend you stop what you are doing and read Ovid's online CGI Course. Point in case. Your errors all point towards a problem with how you use Carp.pm ... yet nowhere in the code you have given do we see where 'longmess' is actually called. It is most likely buried somewhere in one of these three files:

require "admin_sub.pl";
require "uzual_sub.pl";
require "variabile.pl";

Well said,
In addition, I am loathe to spend time trying to figure out errors in code that is written without use strict and warnings. Especially when the poster received several replies to his last post pointing out that they should be using strict.

OK. I'm sorry.

It's ok. You don't have to be sorry, this whole business just isn't very nice to newbies, but there is a reason for it. Here is some cookie code that i wrote about a year ago. Maybe it will help you get a feel for what you need to do.

use strict;
use warnings;
use CGI qw(:standard);
use CGI::Cookie;

my @views = qw(first second third fourth fifth sixth seventh eighth);
my %cookies = CGI::Cookie->fetch();
my $x       = (defined $cookies{'cookie_i'})
   ? $cookies{'cookie_i'}->value()
   : 0
;
my $view   = $views[$x++];
my $cookie = CGI::Cookie->new(-name=>'cookie_i',-value=>$x % @views);

print header(-cookie=>$cookie),
   start_html('session'),
   h1($view),
   start_form,
   submit,
   end_form,
   end_html
;

Just name it foo.cgi or something and run it from a browser that accepts cookies. Hope this helps. :)

You say you are using Carp. I dont believe you. The error messages that you have displayed clearly shows that Carp has _not_ loaded properly. The only explanation that I can think for the error messages that you are displaying is that Carp::Heavy has somehow disappeared from your system. I think that you are almost certainly doing something very wrong, the error messages you see there should basically not be possible with a properly installed version of perl.

Reinstall perl and try this again. And DONT MESS WITH THE STANDARD MODULES!!!! If you do, you wont get much sympathy from the folks around here.
