Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Apache Session problem after update

I did not know that at all. I will go back to 5.6.1 this weekend when there is low use. I'll also compile the modules myself. I can swear to you, that I did not intiate the 5.8.1 upgrade, maybe there was a required module that did? I do not use unicode or threads in anything I wrote so far. It sounds like 5.8.1 is a test bed for 6.0, I'm sure I'm off on that.

I can not thank-you enough for your help. It makes me feel better about the world that someone would take the time and effort.

Thank-you Thank-you Thank-you

I hope that I can find something that I can return the favor on sometime. I'm in your dept.

Mark

You're welcome. Helping people is what open source is all about. Perl 5.8.1 is not really related to Perl 6, but it is an attempt to fix some things that were not so great in previous versions, like threads and unicode. Unfortunately these resulted in a significant slowdown, even for code that doesn't use those features. I'm using Perl 5.6.1 for the moment, and will probably stick with it until I need something that doesn't support that version any more.	[reply]
