DB probably locked during migration and the query to log returned nothing. From: Discuss on behalf of dan moylan Date: Monday, August 22, 2016 at 4:31 PM To: "discuss@blu.org" Cc: betty moylan Subject: [Discuss] mysql problem
i run a perl cgi script on www/moylan.us as well as on my home computer. on saturday while i was at the linux install fest the script ran fine both places, but in the afternoon it failed at moylan.us, though it continued fine on my local host. my web hosting service was migrating to a different server over the lunch hour. the error message i receive is: Can't call method "prepare" on an undefined value at /home/moylan/ulmmoy/prl/sub/USR/USR.pm line 777. the code around there is: 775 # get all current logins 776 $stm = "select * from log"; 777 $sh0 = $dh0->prepare ($stm); 778 $sh0->execute (); i had the same problem two years ago, but on my home machine, not moylan.us where the script ran fine. as best i can recall, the solution involved disabling selinux -- though i'm not certain. however, i checked and the remote server already has selinux disabled. any thoughts as to what could be going on? ole dan j. daniel moylan 84 harvard ave brookline, ma 02446-6202 617-777-0207 (cel) j...@moylan.us www.moylan.us [no html pls] _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@blu.org http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@blu.org http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
