I've had a problem with many "500: Connection reset by peer" errors showing up at seemingly random points in my script. It always dies at the first call to sysread() in the "request" subroutine in http.pm I can perform the same action that my script does in Netscape or Lynx, without ever getting these errors. I did put in some code to repeatedly try the request over again until it works, but sometimes it takes over 15 tries. I even had it wait a random number of seconds between 1 and 10 between each try. I know this is an operating system generated error when the network connection is dropped. My question is: is there something with regard to fault tolerance on socket connections that Lynx implements which LWP does not? Is there a way to work around this problem (other than trying the request over and over again)? If anyone has thoughts or suggestions, they would be greatly appreciated. -- -------------------------------------------------------------- Fair Winds, Software Engineer and WWW developer Chris Dunn MRM, inc.
