If you look in CGI.pm you'll see that the file upload code won't get
called if the request is GET, so POST2GET guarantees that it will fail
for CGI.pm.  Here's a snippet from the modified CGI.pm that I sent to
him and which it seems he never bothered to try out.

print STDERR CGI.pm: \$meth=[$meth]\n;

   defined($ENV{'CONTENT_TYPE'})
   $ENV{'CONTENT_TYPE'}=~m|^multipart/form-data|
   !defined($initializer)
  ) {
  my($boundary) = $ENV{'CONTENT_TYPE'} =~ /boundary=\?([^\;,]+)\?/;
  $self-read_multipart($boundary,$content_length);

Ged,


Will this help even when I am not up loading files? 


Here is the test.pl script I am using.


#!/usr/bin/perl
require CGI;
use strict;


my $q = new CGI;
print $q-header;
print EODUMP;


html
body
form method=post
 input type=text name=foobr
 input type=submit value=submit
/form
br
EODUMP


print $q-param('foo');
print /body/html;


this works fine with a get method but a post doesn't. It runs the first time but the second it repeats the original request.

Thanks


Joe

 The issue that I am having is that when I have KeepAlive turned on my
 scripts won't get the params from the URI.  But this only happens in
 Internet Explorer.  Opera works fine.  
 

This normaly should not happen.

How do you retrieve the parameters ?

I am not using PerlRun, but maybe. Can try without it? Maybe just a small
test script.

AuthenNTLM, IE, KeepAlives

[Harnish, Joe]

Title: AuthenNTLM, IE, KeepAlives





I am running an Apache server using AuthenNTLM for authentication. This is because we are migrating an old NT site to Linux. 

The issue that I am having is that when I have KeepAlive turned on my scripts won't get the params from the URI. But this only happens in Internet Explorer. Opera works fine. 

I have played around with KeepAliveTimeout, MaxKeepAliveRequests trying to get it to work. Which puts me into a catch-22. If I put low numbers in them, the scripts will work fine. But the pop-up login window keeps poping up. And if I put in higher number the pop-up windows go away but the scripts only work the first time.

Thanks for any help


Joe
