There are a number of possiblities here
  • the server is doing something wrong or has been improperly configured
  • you have an infinite loop in your program that you don't know about
  • Netscape's handling of perl scripts is EVILLY flawed (?)
Since we can have no possible way of knowing what your script does, we cannot analyze it. I don't even know if the Netscape server runs the script persistently or not, so it's unlikely that you'll find a solution here. An ugly hack would be to throw in a alarm(x); at the top of your script where x is the maximum amount of time this entire script can take. That's bad- you probably don't want that. Instead, pull apart your code, especially looking at any loops for any bugs.

Related to the client pushing the STOP button? I dunno. Why don't you try it and find out?

AgentM Systems nor Nasca Enterprises nor Bone::Easy nor Macperl is responsible for the comments made by AgentM. Remember, you can build any logical system with NOR.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
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:
    <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.
