Title: Error in new version of Perl v5.8.5
Post by Georgio on 04/03/07 at 20:49:21

Hello Dieter

Our ISP has recently upgraded to version 5.8.5 of Perl.

The script was working on the previous version before the upgrade.
We now have an error on the installation coming up as:
Error Item: .. Category: other is already closed

When trying to run the eAuction.pl file directly from the server, the errors listed
below are given.

Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at ./eAuction.pl line 5223.
Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at ./eAuction.pl line 5232.
Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at ./eAuction.pl line 5233.
Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at eConfig161.pl line 639.
Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at eConfig161.pl line 730.
Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at ./eAuction.pl line 778.

In eAuction.pl -

Line 778 = :
print <<EO_HTML;

Line 5223 = :
$config{'html_path'} = "$ENV{'DOCUMENT_ROOT'}/$config{'html_dir'}";

Line 5232 = :
$config{'icon_url'} = "http://$ENV{'HTTP_HOST'}/$config{'html_dir'}/auction_pics";

Line 5233 = :
$config{'img_url'} = "http://$ENV{'HTTP_HOST'}/$config{'html_dir'}/img_upload";

In eConfig161.pl -

Line 639 = :
print <<EO_HTML;

Line 730 = :
print <<EO_HTML;

Thanks for any suggestions you might have to sort this?
I couldn't even figure out what the word CONCATENATION means :)

Hello again

I saw I had version 1.6.1.60 running.

I deleted it and installed 1.6.1.64 and all is fine again :)
