$dbh->ping() not pinging?
Without the extra ping (see the line following the XXX comment) this program fails on the second "select ..." with "DBD::mysql::db selectrow_array failed: Lost connection to MySQL server during query at dbitest line 19." Why do I need to ping twice? I am using perl 5.6.1, DBI 1.21 and DBD::mysql 2.1011. I also tried upgrading DBI to 1.32 and DBD::mysql to 2.1022; but it didn't change anything. - ask #!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; use DBI; my $dbh_cache; sub db_open { ## XXX - add an extra ping so the second ping will work properly! #$dbh_cache and $dbh_cache->ping; return $dbh_cache if $dbh_cache and $dbh_cache->ping; return $dbh_cache = DBI->connect("dbi:mysql:cswwwdata;user=root") } my $dbh = db_open(); my $thread_id = $dbh->{'mysql_thread_id'}; my ($count) = $dbh->selectrow_array(q[select count(*) from cities]); system(qq[mysqladmin -uroot kill $thread_id]); $dbh = db_open(); ($count) = $dbh->selectrow_array(q[select count(*) from cities]); 1; -- ask bjoern hansen, http://www.askbjoernhansen.com/ !try; do();

Ah, forward the mails in question with full headers to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and I'll take a look.

[ assuming we talk about Reply-To munging ] Even the simplest of email filtering systems should be able to filter that.

Yes, and it's not going away. http://www.unicom.com/pw/reply-to-harmful.html IIRC the new versions of the email RFC's are also explicit about not doing that kind of non-sense. :-) > > You have to choose reply all, to get it in the mailing list cause hitting > > reply only, will send it to just the private email adress. Remember that someone doing that by mistake is in much better shape than the guy next door who by mistake sends a useless mail to more than 1500 people. > > After that you will receive it twice... One from the mailing > > list and one from your private email. Aside from the fact that some people like that then for example this .procmailrc rule can fix it. Surely your mail server and/or mail user agent must have similar functionality, # delete duplicates :0 Wh: msgid.lock | formail -D 16384 .msgid.cache # match mails with [EMAIL PROTECTED] in any recipient field. :0: * ^[EMAIL PROTECTED] Anyway, please read the http://www.unicom.com/pw/reply-to-harmful.html document. Then you're welcome to come back for a Holy War; but it's not all that likely that the list settings are going to change. - ask -- ask bjoern hansen, http://ask.netcetera.dk/ !try; do();

Why not just unsubscribe (as you eventually did)? If you have problems with a list, listname-help@domain and listname-owner@domain are usually most helpful. For this list for example it's [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED] Also have a look at http://dev.perl.org/lists-faq - ask -- ask bjoern hansen - <http://ask.netcetera.dk/> more than 70M impressions per day, <http://valueclick.com>
