Re: Strange blow up -- additional info
I reinstalled the Perl that I already had been using. 5.003_007. That was the first thing I did because I suspected it was Perl. Then it seemed to run for a few more messages before blowing up. So maybe it is still a Perl problem? Any suggestions? /Dorothy At 06:46 PM 12/7/99 -0800, Earl Hood wrote: On December 7, 1999 at 08:15, Dorothy Firsching wrote: I should add that this is on Windows 95 using Perl 5.

Re: Strange blow up -- additional info
No, actually I had not changed anything before the problem -- I'd been busy and just didn't get around to upgrading because things worked fine. After the blowups started, I reinstalled Perl and MhonArc. Still problems. When I finish up some other work, I'll go upgrade both. Maybe it was something I had not encountered before, but I wonder why it quit working... maybe a problem with my registry or something? /Dorothy At 12:34 PM 12/8/99 -0500, Nathaniel Irons wrote: On 12/8/99 at 11:06 AM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Dorothy Firsching) wrote: So maybe it is still a Perl problem? Any suggestions? Earl was asking if you'd changed Perl before the problems started. The suggestions stand; update to the current version of MHonArc, which replaces the mechanism doing the complaining. It probably wouldn't hurt to update Perl, either - 5.003 is awfully old - but first things first. -nat Dorothy Firsching CEO Nautilus Systems, Inc. 3867 Alder Woods Court Fairfax, VA 22033 http://www.nautilus-systems.com/ [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Strange blow up -- additional info
I should add that this is on Windows 95 using Perl 5. It had been working since 1998. /D At 08:16 PM 12/6/99 -0500, Dorothy Firsching wrote: After successfully using MHonArc for a couple of years, I've run into this: Reading dmposts.mbx... undefined subroutine main::timegm called at C:\Perl\LIB/timelocal.pl line 60 FOPEN2 chunk 397. I reinstalled Perl and MHonArc. I'm still on 2.2.0, just never got around to upgrading, but it was working fine. It seems that this is data dependent, rather than a problem caused by my machine clobbering a routine or something. I could add 4 messages OK, 8 messages OK, then when adding another message I get the same error (and it does not seem to matter which message I add -- I've gotten it on about 4 different messages I've tried to add next.) Could this be a problem with the time on one of the messages I already added? How do I find out?
