Howdy monks,

This might be standard question: if so, please point me at the documentation, because I just can't figure out what to call my problem.

In a variety of CGI scripts I use the eval { } if ($@) { } construct to catch errors from DBI or BioPerl modules. Interestingly, though, any errors that are caught still get written to my cgi.log filling it up. I'd like to turn that off, if at all possible. Is there a standard way of doing this? What exactly am I looking to turn off? It isn't STDOUT, so is it writing to STDERR I want to disable?
