That's messed up.. what's up. I get an ISE on the whole board. I upgraded on my test box in 5 minutes was up and running. I upload to the productional server and it fails miserably. If ubb6_test.cgi is failing..what the hell am i doing wrong...

This means you either uploaded the script in ASCII or the path to perl is incorrect. Check your error log...

Perhaps I have missed something.. am I not to upload the script in ASCII.. i thought we were supposed to.. I wish i could view the error log..

I ran hello.pl and cgi and they worked perfectly. I am so confused. I uploaded all the files 5 times.. I really haven't a clue as to what is happening.
Thanks for your help charles.. do you have any more ideas?

This is the perl version running on the server. PERL 5.00404 is that sufficient?

Sorry, that should read didn'tupload in ASCII.

Do you have access to your error logs?

i will contact the host for error log.

Here is a copy of the debug for the files. If i comment out the file lock for fcntl.pm then it works. what are the repercussions of not using file lock. ( I assume this can corrupt the board drastically).


How does one go about fixing this!?

**THAT** was in your error logs!?!

Support ticket time, man. Something is VERY wrong with your server, so Infopop is going to want to look at it....

let me give you an update:

Software error:
[Sat Feb 10 16:55:57 2001] Fcntl.pm: [Sat Feb 10 16:55:57 2001] Fcntl.pm:
Can't locate object method "ckage" via package "Fcntl" at
/usr/lib/perl5/i386-linux/5.00404/Fcntl.pm line 1. BEGIN failed--compilation
aborted at hello.cgi line 6.

This is the error I get. I had already opened up a support ticket with infopop and am currently workin with them on it. It appears that the module that provides file locking is not executing properly. I have to go now, I will post more later.

David Deezer sends this to me as a by pass for file locking. Take note that if any one decides to implement this that there is a significant chance of file data/file corruption since file locking is disabled.
