Okay, yes, I'm a newbie to Perl and CGI. But I've had several years
of programming in other languages and I have a Perl book (IOW, I can
follow instructions!)
I am running a quick and dirty web site, and decided to test a Perl
script. My provider assures me Perl is set up to run scripts from my
cgi-bin directory. They run Apache on an up-to-date Redhat server. I
wrote a simple script to test everything:
#!/usr/local/bin/perl
# hello.pl -- my first perl script!
print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
print <<"EOF";
<HTML> <HEAD>
<TITLE>Hello, world!</TITLE>
</HEAD> <BODY>
<H1>This don't work!</H1>
</BODY> </HTML>
EOF
Thats it. It doesn't run! I know the server sees it, because the
first error I got was Not Authorized. Seems when I upload the default
permissions are too high, so I set them correctly and now I get:
Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was
unable to complete your request.
A note to my provider revealed that, yes, they believe everything's
set up, and they said that this error is probably the result of an
error in my program. The program seems too simple to be in error, and
its directly out of the book. Oh, they also confirmed my path to Perl
was correct.
okay, go ahead. Tell me I'm stupid. Flame the newbie. Fill my In
Box and this news group with derision. Just, please, tell me what I
did wrong?!?!
Thanks

Are you certain there is a return after the end of the here-doc?
You should run with warnings enabled
#!/usr/local/bin/perl -w
If you use CGI::Carp you have have errors output to the browser.
use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser);
Having said that, After ensuring a return after the last EOF, this works
fine on my server.

Alright, as a veteran order-follower, have you checked
perldoc -q server
from the command line? There are (as of perl 5.6.1) 9 URLs to help
debug the most common problems with CGI scripts.
A quick checklist, however:
- What are the contents of the server's error log? you may
have to call your host to find out, but you don't seem to be
afraid to do so.
- I assume you use Win32 yourself. Does hello.pl have Win32 or
unix line endings? ie, do your lines end in CRLF or LF?

Why don't the return values of perl subs autovivify?
% perl -wle ' sub f {$_} print f() -> [0] '
Can't use an undefined value as an ARRAY reference at -e line 1.
It doesn't even work for lvalued subs:
% perl -wle ' sub f:lvalue {$_} print f() -> [0] '
Can't use an undefined value as an ARRAY reference at -e line 1.
Can this feature be exploited in perl6 to control autovivication?

Also notice in this example, that messages are written to a file, not to

Did I not say you boys are trolls? However, this moniker
"Lou Moran" is a bit more of a gracious troll than most.
I read his post as a classic example of the quality

Funny thing is, I could name a dozen people who *want* replies at the top
because it saves them the time of *finding* the replies. They claim this is
because they are busy people and if they are following a thread message by
message then the steadily sinking replies become harder to find.
But at least these people argue about it in a friendly manner without
stabbing any newbies ;-)
Regarding Outlook Express: Further annoyance is that the bl***** signature
is also put at the top. Double-shame on Bill's Soldiers for failing to place
the cursor at the end THEN injecting the signature and restoring the cursor

In my mailer/newsreader, quotes are in a different color. It's easy to
skip them without even attempting to read them with hardly looking.
See how <group.google.com> does it. They use the same principle.
And if the quoted text become the majority, somebody forgot to use his
scissors appropriately.

Oh, but it _is_ the better way of doing things! That's exactly where
the cursor needs to be so that the respondent can start snipping
extraneous quotage, in agreement with the long-standing rules of
netiquette.
(And I've seen those same rules of netiquette promoted over a
Microsoft copyright for use on Microsoft's own newsgroups. So it's
not only on Usenet that these same rules are laid down.)
Mind you, from what I've seen they make a total sow's ear of inserting
signatures.

Cue nobull: "get real... this is a discussion group, not a help desk".
It's of only microscopic interest what the questioner wants in this
regard: it's what the countless other readers want that sets the
rules.
When you've promoted your deviant scheme on the appropriate news.*
groups, taken the votes, drafted the replacement RFC and so on, you'll
be ready to come back here and teach us all the new way of Usenetting.
Until then, the netiquette rules say what they say (and in my opinion
for excellent reasons), and you can keep your "dozen people" who
demand their instant gratification without any coherent discussion.
Now can we please get back to discussing Perl?

Actually, 'tin' and 'pine' both start the user off with the cursor at the
top just above all of the nicely quoted text. Signatures are placed
wherever the user spec's, and the default placement has varied from
version to version.
(I can't believe this even sounds like I'm defending Microsoft, but
attacking them *just because* they're Microsoft smacks of fanatacism to
me, and fanaticism is to be avoided...)
Perhaps someone could write a Perl module that would undo top-postings
and reorder (by >>> depth) the quoted text and... and...
Oh, never mind. :-) I just got visions of miles and miles of
*bottom*-posted articles. Replies with *all* of the reply at the bottom
are just as bad...

Looks like you are trying to call a method on an object (which in
Perl is just a reference that has been bless()ed into a class), but
are calling it on an ordinary reference instead.
>sub get_data{
>

I assume that you expect $Db to contain a database handle object
from the DBI class. The error message above is teling you that it
doesn't.
> ...

>
>The call:

So where does $db_conn come from? I am assuming you did something
like:
use DBI;
my $db_conn = DBI->connect(
$dsn, $user, $pass,
{RaiseError => 1}
) or die "Can't connect: $DBI::errstr";
Did you test for success? No-one can really help you without seeing
that part of your code.
Cheers,
Damian

$Db is not what you think it is. check your arguments to

Subject: Unix dictionary lookups in perl
Message-Id: <9tunc7$i4j$1@morgoth.sfu.ca>
I'm writing a program that needs to check words against the unix
dictionary file. It will need to check thousands of words in a single
execution. Looking through CPAN, I don't see any native perl modules
(although please correct me if I've missed any). So, what is the best
approach?
1 - Use system calls to the unix 'look' command. Look is very fast, but
the overhead of thousands of system calls would doubtless be high.
2 - Make calls to a C library, if there is one for this purpose.
3 - Write some perl code to access the 'words' file directly.
Thanks,
Anthony

Have you considered reading the file into a hash? 100_000 8-letter
words stored in a hash occupies about 10M of RAM on my linux box.

Administrivia:
The Perl-Users Digest is a retransmission of the USENET newsgroup
comp.lang.perl.misc. For subscription or unsubscription requests, send
the single line:
subscribe perl-users
or:
unsubscribe perl-users
to almanac@ruby.oce.orst.edu.
To submit articles to comp.lang.perl.announce, send your article to
clpa@perl.com.
To request back copies (available for a week or so), send your request
to almanac@ruby.oce.orst.edu with the command "send perl-users x.y",
where x is the volume number and y is the issue number.
For other requests pertaining to the digest, send mail to
perl-users-request@ruby.oce.orst.edu. Do not waste your time or mine
sending perl questions to the -request address, I don't have time to
answer them even if I did know the answer.
