Embperl 1.2b9: [error] Modification of a read-only value attempted

[Dirk Lutzebaeck]

Totally weird. Suddenly I get the following error message after
uploading a file:

[error] Modification of a read-only value attempted a
t /local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/i386-linux/HTML/Embperl.pm

I think I haven't changed a thing but maybe I'm just stoned...

This is on Embperl 1.2b9 apache 1.3.9 which works flawlessly for
months...

The offending line in Embperl.pm is

if (ref($fdat{$_}) eq 'Fh') 
                        {
---->                   ${${$fdat{$_}}} = $cgi -> uploadInfo($fdat{$_}) ;
                        }
                }

I turned on embperl debugging but I don't know what went wrong.

The HTML code is trivial:

<p> file is [+ $fdat{'fn'} +]

<form>
       <input type=file name="file_name" size=40>
       <input type=submit>
</form>

Embperl debug says:

[5488]REQ:  Embperl 1.2b9 starting... Fri Feb  4 16:38:04 2000

[5488]REQ:  No Safe Eval  All Opcode allowed   mode = mod_perl (3)
[5488]REQ:  Package = HTML::Embperl::DOC::_4
[5488]FORM: file_name=2001_3000_5.csv

And then stops...


Gerald, do you have any opinion on this?
