From goldilox at teachnet.edb.utexas.edu Mon Mar 1 13:05:22 2004 From: goldilox at teachnet.edb.utexas.edu (Goldilox) Date: Mon Aug 2 21:23:23 2004 Subject: APM: Activestate Perl 5.8 Message-ID: Thanks to everyone for helping me with responses to my previous questions! Sometimes I forget to say thanks in a timely manner, but I do appreciate the help. I have two separate questions which I will split into two emails. #1: I have consistently seen problems with Activestate Perl release of version 5.8 and have continued to run Activestate Perl 5.6 on my IIS Server. I have a network team that fiddles with certain Microsoft patches that I don't always have full knowledge of, but I wouldn't expect that to effect the Perl installation. I have seen version 5.8 fail in every installation for the last two years, including a recent installation of the new build where it again caused scripts to fail that were running fine in version 5.6. These are not overly complicated scripts - in fact the only module they typically call is CGI.pm. Does anyone know if this is typical? Could my network environment be a cause for this type of failure between versions? Is this too broad a question? I guess I'm wondering if Activestate's Perl 5.8 fails for anyone else, or is it just my experience. Thanks again for any help.

We may be able to meet at the UT applied research labs, where I work. It's on the Pickle campus on Burnet, just south of Braker. They have a nice auditorium with plenty of space. I think we would have access to a projector. I'm not sure about net access. CACTUS meets there, and I talked to the guy who coordinates that. He said it would probably be doable, but he's currently busy so he'll get back to me. -- Ian Remmler | A monk asked Joshu, "Has a dog Buddha ian@remmler.org | nature or not?"
