in reply to What magic is this?

Did you try putting the error handlers in the other script to see if it does the same thing? (BTW, I'm assuming both scripts are running on the same server using the same Perl.)

    I know its my error handling code and when I add a cut down version it is enough to generate the same error; 
    $SIG{__DIE__}  = \&log_die;

sub log_die {
 print @_;
}

    This is the full version, strange it has a die in it but the process doesn't! 
    sub log_die {
    return unless CRITICAL >= $PRIORITY;
    _log(_msg('critical',@_));
    die @_;
}
