in thread CGI troubles - not writing to file

That's really strange, your script worked for me (perl 5.6.1, apache 1.3.20) !

Could there be a problem with the relative paths to the files ?

    One suggestion that could solve this mystery:
    Try to catch the error of close(BACKUP): 
    close(BACKUP) or show_error ("error closing [$index_backup]: $!");

    It is generally a good idea to check even close for errors.
