Hi list, I'm having trouble with mod_perl 2.0 (latest stable build) - I have it set up to run all my old cgi programs through an aliased directory (perl-bin->cgi-bin with the mod_perl filters turned on in apache). However, when running under mod_perl, my output gets garbled characters added to it, even when I specify the charset for output in the HTML code.
Here it is under my old CGI model (which is now far too CPU-intensive): http://www.calgarysun.com/cgi-bin/publish.cgi?p=171082&x=articles&s=showbiz And here it is under mod_perl: http://www.calgarysun.com/perl-bin/publish.cgi?p=171082&x=articles&s=showbiz The upshot - for some reason, using exactly the same libraries to publish content, when run under mod_perl apostrophes become "Â". Anyone have any idea why? Our publishing system doesn't use any strange character sets - it's a straight DBD::mysql call to get the results for an article and straight search-and-replace type regular expressions to place the content in the templates. Anyone ever seen anything like this? I would REALLY like to be able to run under mod_perl - some days my server load spikes up to 75 or so on all 4 processors... it's a bad scene. --Aaron Hawryluk Webmaster, The Calgary Sun http://www.calgarysun.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] Ph: 403-250-4371
