problems with Perl under windows, apache

Hello!

I have a script under windows with apache that doesnt seems to work. The 
script is reading a log-file
and writing new information. But when trying it over internet, my skript 
does not
do any changes to the log-file. (ie its only replacing the last entry 
instead of increasing the list)

By now I have to say that when trying my script under unix, apache as 
localhost, the script is working
perfectly.

Perhaps these may be clues...:
the perl-skript is executed under: C:/WEB/Apache/..../perl/log.pl (the 
logfile is r/w from this DIR aswell)
chmod is already set for more users.
and Im using file-lock when reading the file and later on writing in it.
I use a refresh-function, called every 5th min.
use POSIX 'strftime';
$delay = 300;
....
..
print "Refresh: ", $delay, "\n";

Maybe the cache is used for updating the log-file instead of taking 
updates from the html-formula?
but why and how do I change that?


any configurationhelp or hints are welcome!
Erik

Are you running it under mod_perl?  If so, please tell us if it's
mod_perl 1 or 2, and include the info listed at the "report problems"
link on http://perl.apache.org/.  We really can't guess much without
seeing your code.
