Hi Ensure you have MD5 installed (Different to Digest::MD5). I'm sure you have or your test script would fail at the "use MD5;" line. Instead of putting the line "use MD5;" in your embedded perl - try putting the following line in your apache conf file along with your session handling stuff:
PerlModule MD5 Restart apache and hopefully the problem will be resolved. Hope this helps.
