Re: up2date mess SOLVED!

[Andre <wo...@br.inter.net>]

Folks

I had all back working only after I uninstalled mod_perl and reinstalled it again.
I didn´t know how to uninstall, but I found a very usefull uninstall menu at the 'others' tab at Webmin (the free control panel software that comes with RHEL).
To reinstall it was pretty easy, following the regular mod_perl installation.

And I've definatelly deactivated this damn up2date, for this was just like a trojan horse for me!

Thanks for the replies everybody!

André

  Subject: up2date mess continued: serious leakage!


  Hello

  Now the variables leak despite what I do.

  Can you guys confirm if this script isn't supposed to leak? It's totally mad, confusing all usernames.

  Thanks

  André

  PS: it's a simple test.cgi wich I am calling with 
  test.cgi?username=jane 
  test.cgi?username=jack 
  test.cgi?username=stacey
  ... and it keeps confusing all names. 
  I'm using 'local our's, so I think it shouldn't be leaking, and this is a problem at my mod_perl installation. So what could be causing this there? What do I do?


  #!/usr/bin/perl -wT

     use strict;
    
     use CGI;
     
     local our $q = new CGI;
     local our $username = $q->param('username');

     print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
     
     defined $username and print "<p>Hello there, your username is $username <br>";
     ! defined $username and print "<p>[no username provided]<br>";
