POST not working

[Sterpu Victor <vi...@casnt.ro>]

POST method is not working when I use Apache::ASP.
My setup is like this:
- global.asa

    use CGI;
    our ($cgi);
    sub Script_OnStart {$cgi = new CGI;}
    sub Script_OnFlush {}

- Apache containts the following setup for ASP

    AddHandler cgi-script .cgi
    <Files ~ (\.cgi)>
          AddHandler perl-script .cgi
          PerlHandler Apache::ASP
    </Files>
    PerlSetVar Global /tmp

- and my test script "test_post.cgi"

    <%
    use CGI;
    print "[1]test is ".$cgi->param("test")."<br>";
    print "
    <form action=test_post.cgi method=post>
    <input type=text name=test>
    <input type=submit>
    </form>
    ";
    %>

When I run the script I should get the value of the test variable but 
$cgi->param("test") is always empty.
GET method is working fine.
How can I fix this?

Thanj you.

I am not sure ,but it looks like BinaryRead will just read STDIN/mod_perl
buffer
entirely into internal buffer .While getting multipart/form-data a CGI
object
is used to read a file upload.
This is just an explanation ,is that OK ?I guess yes.

Thanks for this, ran into the same issue, and that fix worked perfectly.

Note: This affects forms processed using CGI that are submitted with
method="post" and enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded" (the default). 
Using method="get" or enctype="multipart/form-data" does not cause the problem,
so may be another solution for some.

I found a solution by adding "PerlSetVar RequestBinaryRead Off" to my 
apache config.
