[cgiwrap-users] problem with cgiwrap and dbi

[dean b. <de...@pu...>]

Hi,

Whilst running a cgi script I get the following error:

[Wed May  1 16:40:12 2002] [error] [client 193.237.21.207] malformed header 
from
  script. Bad header=Can't call method "prepare" on: /usr/cgiwrap/cgiwrap.

What is REALLY annoying is that the error message is clipped.

I am using a package that includes 'use DBI;' and this is where the prepare 
method is located (within a function). Part of the package code is as follows:

     use strict;
     use Push qw/$CFG/;
     use DBI;

sub _usr_details {

     my ($db, $server, $dbusr, $dbpw, $query) = @_;
     my $dbh;

     eval {
         $dbh = DBI->connect("DBI:mysql:$db:$server",$dbusr,$dbpw);
     };

     if ( $@ ) {
     	warn "_usr_details: $@: ";
     	return undef ;
     }

     my $sqlcmd = $dbh->prepare($query);
     my $row_count = $sqlcmd->execute;

     if ($row_count > 0) {
         my $userdata = $sqlcmd->fetchrow_hashref;
         $sqlcmd->finish;
         $dbh->disconnect;

         return $userdata;
     }

     return undef;
}

Can anyone tell me how to get around this problem?

Also, how can I get cgiwrap to dump the ENTIRE error message? Is this a 
program or system software config issue?

TIA

Dean
