Could you at least post some code snipplets? Image::Size should work fine using mod_perl, probably you haven't defined or cleared some variable that mod_perl keeps in memory. Try using strict and turn on warnings to get some more information about your script.	[reply]

Are there any error messages? Anything in the log file? Have you tried to figure out where your scripts are failing?	[reply]

Perhaps it is a file permissions issue. Make sure that the file is readable by the web server. Another thing that could be happening is that you are using a relative path to specify the file location, and the script running under mod_perl might not be running from with the same current directory as the old script was. Try using `chdir()` or specifying the full path to the file to see if that helps. The imgsize function returns 3 things when an error occurs. The results are (undef, undef, "ERRORMESSAGE"). Check that error message to see if/what error is occuring. `my($w, $h, $err) = imgsize($file); die $err if ($err);` [download] These are the only things I can think of off the top of my head. It will be easier for people to help you if you post some code. Brad	[reply] [d/l]
