Here are my guesses. 1. It's a file permissions problem. Any time I see a: open(OUT_EXT,">test.txt"); instead of: open(OUT_EXT,">test.txt") || die "can\'t open OUT_EXT"; it catches my eye. 2. It's a HTTP protocol problem. All cgi applications need to either redirect to another pa

Does anyone have a solution to the fact that that the DB_File module does not work for reading a database file -- at least not for a database file type of DB_HASH. This seems to be a basic problem with the module itself and appears to not only affect Win32 systems but (at least) Unix systems, also.
