Re: $fdat not working when using POST
Hi Gerald,
I am writing in reference to the problem stated above in some emails
from early in 2003. The last message I found on the list was this:
http://www.ecos.de/~mailarc/embperl/2003-02/msg00022.html
What was the resolution to this problem? I seem to be encountering the
same thing with Apache 1.3.29, mod_perl 1.28 and Embperl 2.0b11 ---
forms submitted via post don't get put into %fdat. Can you help me?
Thanks,
Dan

Do you run under mod_perl or as CGI?
Do you use CGI.pm in any way or any other code that might have eaten up the post data already?
Could you add a
[+ $ENV{CONTENT_LENGTH} +]
to your page and see if you get a value other then blank or zero?
Gerald

Hello Dan,
I was the original author of that message.
It turned out that there was a hidden .htaccess file in my /www directory.
In that file, there is a line that forbid submitting by POST. Once a delete
the .htaccess file, POSTing worked again.
I did not put the .htaccess file there -- that's why I was surprised to
find it there. Looking through the .htaccess file, it appeared to be
related to Frontpage server extension. I think it was one of the tons of
files that were put there by my web host when I asked to have Frontpage
server extension set up.
I hope this is the same situation for you, although it may be a long shot.
Keep us posted as to your resolution to this problem.
......Hoenie
