Hi all respectful Perlmonks,

I keep getting the error as shown in the Apache error_log as
"gdbm store return -1 error 13" while I was trying to write
data into a db file using dbmopen.

dbmopen(%DB, "file", 666) ; 
$DB("moo") = "moo" ;
[download]

for this example I would get an error as
gdbm store return -1, errno 13, key "moo" at line blah blah..

It's a cgi program using perl, when I tested off line (just run from
the command line with parameters given)the data was written to the file.db
no problem.

However, when I ran this same program through a browser and trying
to add a record, it gave me an internal server error and the log
shown the error 13 as stated above. the permission for the file.db was
set to 777 just to make sure there was no problem with writing permission
the contents of the db can be view, but cann't write via a browser.

It's running on a Redhat, Perl 5.6.1, Apache 1.3.24 with mod_ssl

Anyone came accross the error above? I would appreciate any input you may have
thanks!!

regards,
