Cgi error from support.pm

Michael_A_Walter · March 21, 2001, 1:08am

Hello -

Today I found a bug in support.pm - or at least my Linux system was not
happy with it.

I installed the tar.gz file and rt ran great, then I got a checkout of
the cvs tree (v. 1.0.7) and ran into a problem.

The problem is that neither of the cgi exe’s work. When executing

them from the command line, I get the following output

[waltermi@nyrangers cgi]$ webrt.cgi
Can’t modify constant item in scalar assignment at
/opt/rt/lib/rt/ui/web/support
.pm line 59, near “>”
syntax error at /opt/rt/lib/rt/ui/web/support.pm line 59, near “>”

/opt/rt/lib/rt/ui/web/suppor
t.pm line 151.
Compilation failed in require at /opt/rt/bin/rtmux.pl line 49.
[waltermi@nyrangers cgi]$

When I try to get to them via the web, I get the following errors in

the error_log

[waltermi@nyrangers cgi]$ tail /var/log/httpd/error_log

[waltermi@nyrangers cgi]$

Unfortunately, I have not really debugged the problem, but here is

what I know: I did a cvs log on support.pm and found

revision 1.27
date: 2001/02/11 23:40:21; author: jesse; state: Exp; lines: +6 -3
imported brandon’s url importing code

It looks like the tar.gz file for download is using the 1.26 version

of support.pm so when I replaced the 1.27 version with the one from

the tar.gz file, everything seemed to work.

Here are the differences.

Looks like the importing url code is causing problems. If it helps, I’m
running RH 6.2, and Apache 1.3.2.

Let me know if you need any more info,

There’s a typo in what’s in CVS. you should be running 1.0.7, not
the random code-of-the-day from CVS.On Tue, Mar 20, 2001 at 06:08:38PM -0700, Michael A. Walter wrote:
