Fellow Monks,
I've created a CGI script which returns a TAR-archive, built using Archive::Tar.
- The script runs fine on a Linux-box (Red Hat 9).
- It also runs on some windows box.
- On both machines you can connect with different clients (tested w3m, mozilla, konqueror).
- But on a second Linux-box (also Red Hat 9) it delivers TAR-archives which contain the filenames all-right but otherwise only \0s (x00). ????
- On that box it can create the tarballs as a file but can't deliver them correctly.
- Both linux boxen have (almost) the same httpd.conf, only differences in UserDir-related settings. I can't tell whether there might be any important differences but obviously there are.
- I've tried MIME-types: "application/x-tar", and "../octet-stream".
Can anyone point me in the right direction where to search for clues?
Regards... |
Stefan

you begin bashing the string with a +42 regexp of confusion

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
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).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
