OK, more info. The app does actually work OK with CGI::Simple, but I'm using the expression $self->query->url() a lot to generate links within the app, and when I dump $self->query->url() to stdout, for CGI::Simple I get this: http://localhost:8080script/lims_server.pl instead of the correct url (as with CGI.pm): http://localhost:8080/hmds That appears to be what is causing the problem. If I hover over the urls generated by the app using CGI::Simple, I get things like http://localhost:8080/lims_server.pl/user/change_password and if I change 'lims_server.pl' to 'hmds' (as generated by CGI.pm) in the browser address, the page renders fine (but still generates incorrectly formatted urls). lims_server.pl is the name of the script which starts the development server on port 8080. my $server = CGI::Application::Server->new(); $server->document_root("$Bin/../static"); $server->entry_points( { '/hmds' => 'LIMS::Dispatch' } ); # CAD class $server->run; Hope this is more helpful. -- Richard Jones ##### CGI::Application community mailing list ################ ## ## ## To unsubscribe, or change your message delivery options, ## ## visit: http://www.erlbaum.net/mailman/listinfo/cgiapp ## ## ## ## Web archive: http://www.erlbaum.net/pipermail/cgiapp/ ## ## Wiki: http://cgiapp.erlbaum.net/ ## ## ## ################################################################
