So far so good. 5.8.0 is now the current Perl version, and it appears that 3.10a is the current OSU web server version. I have no reason to believe your problem is related to outdated versions, but you should read the release notes for current versions if you think your problem is related to these packages. >We use CGI/Perl as a bulletin board. Hmm. While its always possible that the language and/or protocol used in implementing the bulletin board system are the cause of the problem, that's not the place to start looking. Have you contacted the author/maintainer/vendor who wrote the bulletin board system, or, if you have the source, have you attempted to debug it yourself? >Recently, while trying to access one of >the plugs on the site, only sporadically, we will get "The document >contained no data, Try again later message." That means absolutely nothing outside the context of your bulletin board software. Without a lot more mid-level detail about what the bulletin board system is doing at the moment the error occurs, possibly including what data store it is using, the name and arguments of the CGI directive being issued, etc., it's really not possible to guess what's going on. >This problem just >started recently after an upgrade to tcpip 5.1 eco 4 but nothing else >has changed. Could be a clue. There are all sorts of different logical names you can define to enable verbose logging of the various bits of TCP/IP Services, but that won't tell you much unless you have a more detailed idea of what your software is doing than you have so far mentioned. -- ________________________________________ Craig A.
