So, what is your system locale? And what is your system? And where in your CGI does the error happen? Is it fatal? Where do you see the error? What modules does your CGI use? Have you tried to whittle down the CGI script to the relevant parts so that it still outputs the error but is shorter than 20 lines?

non-fatal, shows up as perl output in the servers error log exactly as posted.
No other errors, or clues.

Thank you for taking the time to respond.

Further to Corions advice, please read and understand How do I post a question effectively?, as advised when posting.

Apologies to you both, and to everyone else - I know better than to have posted such a question w/o some "clues" to work with. I'm afraid I've been up too many hours, and need some rest.

In answer to your question - or rather, to place what I should have already;

sys UNIX
# locale
LANG=
LC_CTYPE="C"
LC_COLLATE="C"
LC_TIME="C"
LC_NUMERIC="C"
LC_MONETARY="C"
LC_MESSAGES="C"
LC_ALL=

Once again, sorry for the omissions, and thank you for all your time and consideration.

P.S. Just a "hunch"; do I need to set a perl env in the script to make perl happy, maybe?
