I have a script that has been generating a strange error that I can't
seem to find the source. In the script, at the top, we have the
following to help trouble shoot it if any errors:
#!/usr/bin/perl
BEGIN { open (STDERR, ">./scriptname_error.log"); }
In the error_log file it generates we keep seeing the following
error:
Invalid offset:
And that's it. Normally it will indicate the line#, date, detailed
error, etc., like in the apache error_log file. but this is all it
shows. This is a cron script also.
Any ideas or help with this error would be much appreciated.
Searching my own Perl libraries, I find that exactly this error would be
produced by a call to DateTime::TimeZone->new with an undefined value
for the 'name' parameter. My version validates the parameters to the
call and produces a more informative error message, but it is very
likely that you have an earlier version that doesn't do that.
