Anytime perl crashes, it is a bug in perl, unless the crash was due to a XS module since they have access to the internals of perl. However, MHonArc is written in pure Perl. You are lucky that the signal handler actually worked. > --------- > $ mhonarc -add -rcfile [EMAIL PROTECTED]/mail.mrc -outdir > [EMAIL PROTECTED]/www/mail > This is MHonArc v2.5.11, Perl 5.00404 linux --------------------------------^^^^^^^ An old version of perl. What linux distribution are you using? You may be using a bugging build if you are using the version of perl provided with an older version of Redhat. I got in the habit of always building my own version of perl under Redhat. However, the RH 7.2 and 7.3 releases appear to have better builds of perl and I have not experienced any real problems with them. > Attempt to free unreferenced scalar at > /home/mhonarc/src/MHonArc2.5.11/release/lib/perl5/site_perl/mhamain.pl line > 92, <IN> chunk 1. The line number is at an eval block. So something within perl is probably choking when the eval block is exited. The only advice I can give you is to either rebuild perl from sources, or better yet, upgrade to a newer version of perl. Note, I have not used Perl 5.4 (5.004x) in awhile, but the code that the debugger is referencing has been the same for a long time. --ewh --------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off this list, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message text UNSUBSCRIBE MHONARC-USERS
