The website I am building uses flock in many places to lock files. In
the future this site will be running on multiple linux servers and a
shared drive (probably Red Hat on IBM or Dell Blade servers). The
question I have is, is flock handled on the hard drive with flags, or
is it all contained in memory / temporary files by the OS? WOuld
server B know that Server A had "flocked" a file?

Your question has no connection to the Perl programming language.

You're describing a cluster environment which typically uses a
filesystem specifically for a shared environment. Solaris has several.
Don't know how you'll do this with Linux, but googling "Linux Cluster"
has a bunch of hits. You may just be using NFS. I think a "distributed
locking mechanism" is used across the entire cluster to coordinate
cluster-wide shared resources. At least, that's what DEC's VMS did back
in 1985.
I think Perl's flock uses the underlying OS' file locking facility. So
whatever the OS provides when perl is built is what it will use. As
someone pointed out, this isn't a perl issue unless your new environment
doesn't provide locking.
I hope you have a test environment you can try your application out on
before you migrate. Otherwise, you'll have downtime while someone
figures out how to fix it.
The Fates decree that you would be that person, I'm sure...

We're building a document management system which supports multiple
types of documents. Thus, the editors for different documents vary from
one another. We would like to build the system in a plugin-based style
so that we or the users of it can add new document types to it as
needed. However, we don't know exactly how to implement it in a
plugin-based flavor. So we want to find some very simple and
easy-to-learn examples. Could anybody help? Thank you!

MI5. are Afraid to Admit They're Behind the Persecution
MI5 have issued a formal denial of any involvement in my life to. the
Security Service Tribunal, as you might expect them to;. but, more
importantly, the persecutors have never. denied that theyre from the
Security Service, despite several years of accusations from my. corner on
usenet and. in faxed articles. I am not surprised that the Security Service
Tribunal found "no. determination in your favour". I am however a little
surprised. that the persecutors have refused to confirm my identification
of them; by doing so,. they implicitly admit that my guess was right.
"No. determination in your favour" says the Security Service Tribunal
In 1997, I made a complaint to the Security Service Tribunal,. giving only
the bare outlines of my case. I do not think it. would have made very much
difference if. Id made a much more detailed complaint, since the Tribunal
has no. ability to perform investigatory functions. It can only ask MI5 if
they have an interest in a subject, to which MI5 are of course free to. be
"economical with the truth".. A couple of months after my complaint the
Tribunal. replied that;
The Security Service Tribunal have now investigated. your complaint and
have asked. me to inform you that no determination in your favour has been
made. on your complaint.
Needless to say this reply didnt surprise. me in the slightest. It is a
well established fact that the secret service are. a den of liars and the
Tribunal a toothless watchdog, so. to see them conforming to these
stereotypes. might be disappointing but unsurprising.
It is noteworthy. that the Tribunal never gives the plaintiff information
on whether the "no determination in. your favour" is because MI5 claims to
have no interest in him, or whether they claim their. interest is
"justified". In the 1997 report of. the Security Service Commissioner he
writes that "The ambiguity of. the terms in which the notification of the
Tribunals decision is. expressed is intentional", since a less ambiguous
answer would indicate to the plaintiff. whether he were indeed under MI5
surveillance. But I note that the ambiguity also. allows MI5 to get away
with. lying to the question of their interest in me; they can claim to the
Tribunal that they have no interest, but at a future date, when. it becomes
clear that they did indeed place me. under surveillance and harassment,
they can claim their interest was "justified". - and the Tribunal will
presumably not admit that in. their previous reply MI5 claimed to have no
interest.
"He. doesnt know who we are"
In early January 1996 I flew on a British. Airways jet from London to
Montreal; also present on the plane, about three. or four rows behind me,
were two young men, one of them fat and voluble, the. other silent. It was
quite clear that. these two had been planted on the aircraft to "wind me
up". The fat youth described the town. in Poland where I had spent
Christmas, and made. some unpleasant personal slurs against me. Most
interestingly, he said the words, "he doesnt know who. we are".
Now. I find this particular form of words very interesting, because while
it is not a clear admission,. it is only a half-hearted attempt at denial
of my guess that "they" = "MI5". Had. my guess been wrong, the fat youth
would. surely have said so more clearly. What he was trying to do was to
half-deny something. he knew to be true, and he was limited to making
statements which he knew to be not false; so. he made a lukewarm denial
which on the face. of it means nothing, but in fact acts as a confirmation
of. my guess of who "they" are.
On one of the other occasions. when I saw the persecutors in person, on the
BA flight to Toronto in June 1993, one of the group of four men. said, "if
he tries to run away. well find him". But the other three stayed totally
quiet and avoided eye contact.. They did so to avoid being apprehended and
identified - since if. they were identified, their employers would have
been revealed, and it would become known. that it was the secret services
who were behind the. persecution.
Why are MI5 So Afraid. to admit their involvement?
If you think about it, what has been going on in Britain for the last. nine
years is simply beyond belief.. The British declare themselves to be
"decent" by definition, so. when they engage in indecent activities such as
the persecution of. a mentally ill person, their decency "because were
British" is still in the forefront of their minds, and. a process of mental
doublethink kicks in, where. their antisocial and indecent activities are
blamed on the victim "because its. his fault were persecuting him", and
their self-regard and self-image of. decency remains untarnished. As
remarked in. another article some time ago, this process is basically the
same as a large number of Germans. employed fifty years ago against Slavic
"untermenschen" and the Jewish "threat" - the Germans declared,. "Germans
are. known to be decent and the minorities are at fault for what we do to
them" -. so they were able to retain the view of themselves as being
"decent".
Now suppose this entire episode had happened in some other country.. The
British have a poor view of the French, so lets say it had. all happened in
France. Suppose there. was a Frenchman, of non-French extraction, who was
targeted by. the French internal security apparatus, for the dubious
amusement of French. television newscasters, and tortured for 9 years with
various sexual and other verbal abuse and taunts. of "suicide". Suppose
this all came out into the. open. Naturally, the French authorities would
try hard to place the blame on their victim -. and in their own country,
through the same state-controlled media which the. authorities employ as
instruments of torture, their. view might prevail - but what on earth would
people. overseas make of their actions? Where would their "decency" be
then?
This is why MI5 are. so afraid to admit theyre behind the
persecution. Because if they did admit responsibility,. then they would be
admitting that there was an action against me - and if the. truth came out,
then the walls would come. tumbling down. And if the persecutors were to
admit they were from MI5, then you can be sure I would. report the
fact; and the persecutors support would fall away, among the mass. media as
well as among the general public. When I. started identifying MI5 as the
persecutors in 1995 and 1996 there was a. sharp reduction in media
harassment, since people read my internet. newsgroup posts and knew I was
telling. the truth. The persecutors cannot deny my claim that theyre MI5,
because then I would. report their denial and they would be seen as liars -
but they cannot admit it. either, as that would puncture their campaign
against me.. So they are forced to maintain a ridiculous silence on the
issue of their. identity, in the face of vociferous accusations on internet
newsgroups. and faxed articles.
Have MI5 lied to the. Home Secretary?
In order for the Security. Services to bug my home, they would either have
needed a warrant from the Home. Secretary, or they might have instituted
the bugging without a warrant. Personally I think it is more likely. that
they didnt apply for a warrant - I cannot see any Home. Secretary giving
MI5 authority to bug a residence to allow. television newscasters to
satisfy their rather voyeuristic needs vis-a-vis one. of their
audience. But it is possible that the Security Service. presented a warrant
in some form before a home secretary. at some point in the last nine years,
for telephone tapping or surveillance of my residence,. or interception of
postal. service.
So the possibility presents itself that a Home Secretary might have. signed
a warrant presented to him based on. MI5 lies. Just as MI5 lie to the
Security Service Tribunal,. so they might have lied to a Home Secretray
himself. MI5 and MI6. are naturally secretive services former home
secretary Roy Jenkins said, they have a "secretive. atmosphere
.... secretive vis-a-vis the government as well as [enemies]". Jenkins
also said he "did not form. a very high regard for how they discharged
their. duties".
It was only a few years ago that MI5 was. brought into any sot the
extraordinary thing is that British media organisations like the. state-
and taxpayer-funded BBC take such an active part. in the MI5-inspired
campaign of harassment. We have after all. heard of MI5 trying to bribe
broadcast journalists;. but surely there must be a substantial number who
are. not bought or blackmailed by the Security Services, and who take part
in the "abuse by newscasters" of their own volition? The. BBC is supposed
to be independent of the government of the day as well. as the
Establishment in general. While perhaps it is childish to think. that the
BBC is anything other than effectively. state-controlled, the degree of
collusion. between the BBC and the British Secret Police MI5 is something
you would not find in many countries. Individual tele-journalists. in other
countries would have enough self-esteem not. to allow themselves to be
controlled by their. secret police - seemingly, BBC broadcasters like
Martyn. Lewis and Nicholas Witchell have such a low opinion of their
employing organisation that. they see no wrong in dragging the BBCs
no-longer-good name. through yet more mud, at the mere request (whether
supported by financial. or other inducements) of the British secret Police,
MI5.
And when challenged, these broadcasters LIE about. their involvement, with
just. as little shame as MI5 themselves. The BBCs Information dept have
said. that;
"I can assure you. that the BBC would never engage in any form of
surveillance. activity such as you describe"
which is an. out-and-out lie. Buerk and Lewis have themselves lied to their
colleagues in the BBCs. Information department over the "newscaster
watching", but unsurprisingly. they refuse to put these denials in
writing. Doubtless. if the "newscaster watching" ever comes to light, Buerk
and Lewis will then continue to lie by. lying about these denials. So much
for. the "impartial" BBC, a nest of liars bought and paid for by the
Security. Services!
It is obvious that the persecution is at the instigation. of MI5 themselves
- they have read my post, and. only they have the surveillance technology
and media/political access. Yet they have lied outright. to the Security
Service. Tribunal. Similarly, BBC newscasters Michael Buerk and Martyn
Lewis have lied to members of their own. organisation. The continuing
harassment indicates they are all. petrified of this business coming out
into the open. I. will continue to do everything possible to ensure that
their wrongdoing is. exposed.

MI5. Persecution: Molestation during Travel
MI5s persecution. of me varies in intensity. Since 1990 it has been steady
for perhaps 80% of the time; there was a notable quiet period in. 1993, and
another quiet. period in Jan-Feb 1995, as well as a hiatus in the first two
months of 1999. It puzzles me that they. cease and restart, seemingly
without any. logic or reason. But one aspect of MI5s activities against me
which is relatively predictable is this weeks. articles topic, which is
Molestation during Travel. Almost every time I cross the Atlantic,. go to
the. Continent or even try to enjoy a holiday in this country, you can bet
that MI5 will be there doing their. utmost to wreck it all.
This aspect of the. harassment is particularly relevant as I will be
travelling to Europe. again in a months time, with naturally the Minidisc
recorder in tow; so it. will be interesting to see if I can record the
abuse which will almost certainly take place, either on the. Tube going to
the airport, at the airport, on the flight,. in the terminal building - MI5
have previously instituted instances. of abuse at each of these locations,
so. well see how much taxpayers money they waste this time, and whether it
will prove possible to capture their. abuse on minidisc.
Read about the MI5 Persecution. on the Web
June 1992 in Polands mountain resort. of Zakopane
The persecution started in June 1990, and for the first. two years I stayed
in the UK apart from a couple of. brief day trips to Calais. By the summer
of 1992 Id had enough. of being cooped up in England with abusive fellow
employees egged on by an abusive secret police service, and decided. to
spend 10 days in southern Poland, on what was intended to be a. holiday at
the mountain. resort town of Zakopane.
Unfortunately the psychopaths of the Security Service. were not willing to
allow me to enjoy a holiday in peace and quiet. The. journey to Zakopane
was by. coach from the meeting point at Londons Victoria coach station
(National Express) followed by ferry followed by another coach. across
Europe. As we left Victoria a youth. and his girlfriend started a loud
tirade of abuse directed. at "this bloke", where the "bloke" was never
named, but. it was very clear that the "bloke" was myself. The youth said
"they" had "found somebody from his school, and he. was always really
stressed at. school, a real psycho". Again, the label "they" was not
elaborated on, but it was clear. that "they" = the persecutors from
MI5. The. boy also said, "he was in a bed and breakfast for only one night
and they got him". By a not unexpected. coincidence I had been in a B&B in
Oxford. a week previously, which had been booked from work; other things
lead me to the. conclusion that the company's offices were bugged for most
of the 2 1/2 years that I was there, so "they" would have. known a room in
the B&B had been booked. After a few minutes of this I. went back to where
they were sitting and asked where they. were travelling. The boy named a
village in France, and the girl's. giggling suddenly ceased; presumably it
permeated. to her brain cell what the purpose of the boy's abuse was.
It is now very clear to me that MI5 were trying to. have me incarcerated,
assaulted or killed. on this trip across Europe. The degree of verbal
violence inescapably leads to this conclusion. When we arrived at. our
destination, it became clear that many people, both in. our tour group and
its. guide, and among the ordinary residents of the town, knew there was a
movement under way to "get" me. MI5 employed many people. and significant
resources for an action which they. knew would only take a maximum of ten
days. A commercial operation would never have felt able to. waste such
resources on such an unproductive and temporary action;. only a
state-sponsored, taxpayer-funded entity like the Security Service. would be
able to be so. wasteful.
To give some examples of what happened in those ten days; I was. walking in
some woods outside the town, when. a Polish woman, looking at me, said the
English "shit" in a strongly Polish-accented voice.. For the first three
years 1990-92 MI5 had been trying to force this word on me.. Another
example; I was walking. near my "hotel" when a mother said laughing to her
child, "a wiesz ze to prawdziwy. wariat" which means "you know hes a real
madman". And the "TV reacting" happened there. too; on Polish TV, a bemused
looking journalist said to another, "to jest sprawa. Anglikow", which means
"its the concern of the. English", in other words, none of our business,
despite what the English are trying. to force down our throats.
Just before we left for home, I went with some others from our group to. a
nearby bar. There a man. shouted at me the same sexual obscenity which MI5
have constantly thrown at me these last three years.. I think MI5 try to
justify their various terms of abuse by repeating. them at me until I say
them, either while conscious or while talking in my sleep; and. then they
seize on my saying those words to "prove". that the obscenities are "my
fault", et cetera. This rather stupid reasoning of theirs. can actually be
seen as indicative of the psychopathic. condition attributed to them in a
previous article; blaming the victim for the. crime you inflict on him is
how psychopaths. think.
Nor did the persecutors let up during the return. trip. Returning on the
ferry over the channel,. a rather insalubrious-looking guy talked to his
mates about "and you know this bloke, hes. really mad you know, hes really
mad". On the National Express return coach. to London, a group of five or
six young people started shouting at me.. I slumped in my seat and tried to
avoid presenting a target, so they. got ever more strident - "whats the
matter with you, cant you. hear us?" One of the other people who had been
on the trip to Poland asked them why they were shouting at. me, and they
said, "hes been to. Cambridge", to which the co-holidayer asked them, "have
you been to Cambridge?" presumably thinking. they were aggrieved fellow
students, but they answered "no". Even after. I left the coach at Elephant
and Castle abuse continued; in the. tube station, two kids started throwing
abuse at me; one of them said to the other, "and you know he works?". to
which the. other answered "yes".
Immediate Aftermath of. November 1992
As you will know from previous articles, my manager at OCG -. ARIS/Oxford,
Mr Mitchell, induced a mental breakdown in me in the months leading. up to
Nov/92. The diagnosis was regarded by the. persecutors as a victory for
them, because. few if any people give credence to allegations of harassment
when. they are made by somebody suffering from schizophrenia. There is also
a bias against. the mentally ill, an "institutionalised bigotry" in society
comparable to the institutionalised. racism against blacks.
However, MI5 did not let up on persecuting me. following Nov/92. In
December 1992 I flew by charter. jet to Alicante in Spain for two weeks
recuperation. MI5 planted one of their people on the. flight, a youth who
tried to start some noises that. "hes a nutter". One of the other
passengers replied, "oh hes a nutter is he?. oh well!" and the youth shut
up and said nothing for the rest of the flight. I think it. would be fair
to say that. the youth on the flight was embarrassed by what he had been
asked to. do in making the flight "uncomfortable" for me; he sounded
defensive rather than. aggressive.
My first trip to Canada. in June 1993
Ive already covered this in a previous article so Ill just give a. brief
summary here.. On 10 June 1993 I flew British Airways from Heathrow to
Torontos Pearson Airport. On de-planing from. the aircraft, one of a group
of four fellow passengers looked at me and said, laughing, "if he. tries to
run away well find him". It was quite obvious that these four men. were the
ones who had been harassing. me since 1990.
I did nothing to apprehend them or bring this. incident to the attention of
the airport authorities,. mostly because this was my very first visit to
Canada,. and the last thing I wanted was to get into a dispute before I had
even finished disembarking. In retrospect, I can see. this was a terrible
mistake; I should. have made every effort to detain and identify these
people.
Subsequently I have made. numerous attempts to obtain the names of these
people from British Airways passenger lists, by. talking to BA, through a
lawyer in Ontario, through a solicitor in England,. through the UK police,
and also through. private detectives in the UK. But all my efforts have
come to nothing. BA have told me they keep passenger lists for a period. of
seven years, so they will still have the list for this. 1993 flight. I did
not see or hear anything during the rest of my visit to Ontario in. 1993
which would have lead me to believe. that I was being watched or followed.
Journey across Canada. in summer 1994
As I think Ive already. said in previous articles I emigrated to Canada in
late May 1994. For six weeks between late May 1994 and early July 1994. I
travelled across Canada. from coast to coast, starting in Toronto, visiting
various cities and ending. up in British Columbia. I saw this both as
something of a holiday, and the chance to get to know. a little better my
adopted. country.
As you can. guess, MI5 followed me everywhere I went during these six
weeks. In Toronto, where I started this trip in late May,. I was spoken
about by one youth to. another with the words "hes an idiot", to which the
other replied, laughing sympathetically, "good luck. to him".
A couple of days. later I went to Montreal and stayed at the YMCA
downtown. As you can. guess (this is all so predictable, isnt it?) MI5
followed me there and bugged my room at the. YMCA. Not only that, but they
managed to. set-up an instance of "newscaster reaction" from a local
television station; while I was watching a Vermont. TV news programme on
the set in. my room, the woman reporter said, "well theyre just tired and
they. want to go home", which sounds like a pretty unprofessional thing to
say until you realise she was trying to say of me that I was. the one that
was supposed to be tired,. and they (ie MI5) wanted me to go home to the
UK.
On the bus journey. across the North American continent, it was quite clear
that MI5 were following me every step on the. way. For the first part of
the journey they actually put someone on the bus with me, a youth who. said
at me "that. guys paranoid" and tried to incite other passengers to attack
me. I stopped for a couple of days in Winnipeg. in central Canada, and on
leaving the town heard on the radio a female presenter ranting. about
"insanity! insanity!". It is. very tiring travelling such a long distance
by bus; I took the journey in two steps, each of. about 36 hours; and it is
especially tiring when you know MI5 are watching you and harassing. you
every. step of the way.
When I finally got to Vancouver, MI5 instituted. the usual harassment, in
very short order. I was surprised how quickly they were able. to induce
hatred towards. me in elements of the general populace; the Security
Service must have employed a number of agents and. serious resources in a
very short period of time; and. for no real gain, because I havent been
back to BC for almost five years, so all their "work". appears to be for
nothing. In downtown Vancouver a. street person said in front of me,
"theyre all talking about him". For. a few days I was staying at Pauls
Guest House. (345 W.14th Ave); on the day I left, the owner Paul shouted at
no-one in particular,. "hes going to Victoria" - which was quite accurate,
I was indeed going to the. provincial capital Victoria on Vancouver
Island. But I had not told anyone at the guest house where. I was going; I
had only mentioned to my parents. back in England on the phone that I was
going away from Vancouver for a few days. Which leads me. to suppose that
MI5s bugging of the phone in my parents. house yielded the
"intelligence" that I. intended to visit Victoria, and they had passed the
information on to. Paul.
When I got. to Victoria it was again obvious that the persecutors were
"doing their stuff" there as well. On. the street I was identified as being
English, although I had not said anything so my. accent hadnt given me
away; and returning by ferry to the mainland, I was abused. by a Canadian
woman who said, "hes a nutter! you can run but you. cant hide". During my
years in Canada I. have never heard the word "nutter" on any other
occasion; I do not think it is part of. Canadians vocabulary; so the
Canadian woman. on the ferry, who was obviously talking about me, must have
been supplied with. this word by the English persecutors. And once I got
back to Vancouver, staying at the Austin Hotel on Granville St, I. listened
to a conversation. in the apartment block directly opposite, and a man
saying, "hes paranoid,. so thats as bad as it can be, so why are they doing
this. to him?".
Holiday in the. States, August 1995
By. 1995 I was living in Canada, and in August I went down the eastern
seaboard to Florida and as far as Key West by car. As you. can guess (this
is all so boring and predictable,. isnt it?) MI5 followed me every step of
the way. I can. see in retrospect that this must have been quite easy for
them as they. had my car bugged, both on the inside to listen to anything
that was said and. what radio station I was listening to, as well as what
must have been a tracker. device installed to track it across long
distances.
The first city I visited was Philadelphia. In. the old Congress Hall where
the first US Congress assembled, the woman guide started. referring to my
situation,. saying that "all these people in Europe were watching it", and
they were. "a little paranoid" at this 18th-century experiment in
democracy. Also I had recently written a newsgroup post where. Id described
a (female) poster as "wet-nosed". (implying "canine"), and a young girl in
Philadelphia remarked, "so he thinks were. dogs?" There were two or three
more incidents during this holiday in the eastern States,. including a
radio station down near. Miami, showing "they" had tracked me all the way
there, and were bugging the inside. of my car; but I didnt record the
details and Ive forgotten some of it now. Also down in Miami. Beach a
French tourist in a lift expressed support. for me with the words, "cest
incroyable" ie. its incredible, meaning that MI5s well-known. actions
against. me were beyond belief.
To go back a bit, in about May/June 1995 Id. visited New York, again by
car, and was insulted several times by. people using the same words that
had been used against me in England. In Central. Park, and elderly
Englishman (not a real gentleman. - but then the Engish view of themselves
as "gentlemen" etc is quite laughable). looked at me and said "idiot". And
while I was eating in a streetside restaurant a New York. youth started
laughing and said something. like, "I cant believe it, hes actually here" -
I think that was because I had had an expressed. wish to visit New York for
some years. before this, although after this visit I wont be going there
again for a very. long time.
Visit to Poland. December 1995/January 1996
In December 1995 I. flew (BA again, unfortunately - every time Ive flown BA
one of these incidents has. happened, presumably MI5 is happier setting up
harassment on British-domiciled carrier) from Montreal to. Berlin and
travelled on to Poland to. visit family. MI5 naturally harassed me in
Poland during my brief stay.. They followed me around and got Polish people
to take part in the harassment. In one case. two Polish youths talked in
front of me saying. in English (with marked Polish accents), "fucked up
men, fuck you". There. were also other incidents which I dont remember too
clearly since it was some. time ago.
The return flight connected through Heathrow,. and in the transit lounge
MI5 again set-up. harassment against me. In Poland they were talking their
abuse in English, and in London they set Polish people after. me to speak
in Polish;. they heard me on the phone to my father, and said "a wiesz ze
to Polski wariat", in an almost. sympathetic, inclusive fashion
(translation. "you know hes a Polish. nutter"). Once on the flight to
Montreal I was again set upon by two. English youths, one of whom spoke and
the other listened. The aggressive "fat bastard" youth said, "if he. wants
to be a wanker". (its my fault theyre harassing me, you see),
self-justification that "hes a nutter" (so we. have to keep on abusing him,
because hes ill), as well as talking about the town in Poland. where I had
been staying. He also said, "he doesnt. know who we are", but as already
remarked in a previous article, that was at best a. half-denial of my guess
expressed in internet newsgroups that the people after me were MI5. - if
anything its a half-confirmation. rather than a half-denial.
These incidents are still going on. You can hear. digitised audio files of
abuse on a BA flight to Berlin in 1998 on the Web. at address
On this flight. they were again attacking my mental health; "paranoid, hes
paranoid". and "nutter" are discernable. The last "during travel" contact
was at Ottawa Airport on 21 July 1998,. when "Alan Holdsworth" the
psychopath MI5 agent, dressed as a. vagrant, was pacing aggressively in the
departure area. In. three weeks I will again be travelling to Europe; we
will see what fresh acts of molestation MI5 perpetrate. during this trip.

Subject: mod_perl locking problem with Apache::Session
Message-Id: <b5c6e1e7-b704-4927-9193-13eac6ccee4e@a35g2000prf.googlegroups.com>
Solved this once years ago and completely forgot the solution. Here's
the setup:
mod_perl2, Apache 2, Apache::Session::MySQL, ModPerl::Registry, and
Apache::DBI
Each script uses Apache::Session::MySQL to get a session and or write
back to the existing session. Apache::Session::Lock::MySQL issues
locks to the database with a GET_LOCK and RELEASE_LOCK statement.
Under normal circumstances there is no problem. However, if we double
click a "submit" button on a Web page or in some other way get two of
the Apache mod_perl processes to be making requests using the same
session at the same time, then we get into a lock condition. MySQL
database shows User Lock states for the processes that are stuck in a
lock:
SELECT GET_LOCK('Apache-Session-4a3a60b7ec332a2de29dd95081c4406a',
3600)
Essentially those apache processes are hosed since they keep a
consistent DB connection with Apache::DBI
The button must really be "double-clicked" quickly to get this
effect. The first time a process is started and it grabs the lock.
The process does not complete -- it's like it is interrupted. The
second one makes any updates to the database. Only solution I've come
up with so far is to modify the lock time in
Apache::Session::Lock::MySQL down to something like 10 seconds which
is still 10x longer than any script will ever take.
What's the solution?

Upload form

print "File $i Path: ";
print $query->filefield('excel');
print "<br><br>";
}
After form Submit
my @filehandles = $query->upload("excel");
print scalar(@filehandles); # Is always 1 even if I upload more than
one file
How do i upload multiple files with the same name and handle it using
cgi-lib?
Thanks

That array has one element in it.

Where have you defined $files?
You should always enable warnings and strict when developing Perl code:
use warnings;
use strict;
Assumming you meant @files instead of @$files, then the loop
will iterate 1 time, because that is what you told it to do.
If you want a loop that will iterate 4 times, then something
like this will do it:
foreach my $i ( 1 .. 4 )

Wow. XML::LibXML is broken? Bummer.
