In response to my query re getting error messages on a script running on a
Linux/Apache server that had run successfully on my Win98 box, Ned Konz

Have you made sure that the scripts don't have CR characters in them?
Unix expects to see just newline characters (0x0a), not CR/LF pairs
like DOS likes.
You may be able to fix this by just choosing text mode in your ftp
transfer.
You can see by doing "od -c abc0.pl | more"

This solved the problem. While using WS_FTP Pro, I did not have ".pl" set
in the Options/Extension tab as a file mode which would automatically be
sent ASCII rather than binary. Once I re-FTPed the files as text, the
scripts ran correctly (well, almost correctly -- but I'll fix one problem
later).
