Hallo modperl, I think, that there is an error in logic of the Apache::Registry.
RewriteRule ^/(de|fr|es|ru|tt|en)(/(.*))?$ /cgi-bin/script.pl/$3 [E=LANGUAGE:$1] Each call of the script with different languages initiates compilation of the script, while in hash $Apache::Registry->{$package} $package key formed from Apache->request->uri instead Apache->request->filename. -- MfG, Albert <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
