I have Apache running on a NT box. I'm trying to use the Fcntl package in order to do some file locking in a script I'm writing. For some reason, when I include Fcntl, I get a error when loading the webpage. If I comment it out, it works fine. 
#!c:/perl5/perl
use Fcntl qw(:DEFAULT :flock);
use CGI qw/:standard/;
use strict;

...my content...
sysopen(OUTFILE,$OUTFILE,O_WRONLY);

#LOCK THE FILE
unless(flock(OUTFILE,LOCK_EX)){
   flock(OUTFILE,LOCK_EX) or die;
}

Any reason this shouldn't work? The crazy thing is that it works via command line. Just doesn't serve up the page.
