The problem seems to have something to do with the new line of Netscape/Mozilla clients (since around Netscape 4.7).

I have had a perl cgi application running on a Netscape Fasttrack Server 3.01 (a forerunner of the iPlanet-Servers) on HP-UX 10.20 (now 11.0) since 1998 and it never did this kind of thing with the old browsers.

By analyzing the logs and results from debugging code I was astonished to find that everything was actually going as expected: cgi a was executed, the browser received the redirect, called cgi b, which was executed and completed. But still I kept getting core files, no output in the browser and logs of TIMEOUTS or PREMATURE EOFs as seen below until I changed from relative to absolute URLs as described by Michiel above.

[25/Oct/2002:20:46:16] failure: for host 141.36.65.205 trying to GET / +cgi-bin/fw/fw_ordner.pl, send-cgi reports: error occurred while sendi +ng content to script (IO timeout error) [28/Oct/2002:10:49:57] failure: for host 141.36.65.205 trying to GET / +cgi-bin/fw/fw_ordner.pl, send-cgi reports: error occurred while sendi +ng content to script (premature EOF)
This is very strange.

to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
