        With all patches installed indeed ...

        Yes. I have tested it a little bit more since my last posting.
The TMP logical is defined to point on SYS$SCRATCH. The CGI.pm 
passes \usr\tmp \var\tmp and chocks on \tmp . The failinbg test
is not the -d (which is fine) but the -w would cause the same crash
within the code. The funny part is :

- if I do a perl -e "if( -w ""\tmp"") { print ""Hello"";}"
  this passes fine.
- Within the CGI.pm it makes the thing crash.



        If I replace VMS=>'\\' by VMS=>'/' it works.
Note that this module USED TO WORK before ... Is this
a CRTL bug worth reporting ?


        Thanks Dan, one more problem you are solving for me ...
