[cgiapp] Weird Perl Internal Errors

[Jerry Kaidor]

Hello,

    I'm getting some errors in my cgiapp-based application that seem to be
related to Perl internals.  They are produced by the Apache webserver,
and are ending up in /var/log/httpd/error_log.

  There's one of them tacked onto the end of this message.   I have no
clue as how to even approach this stuff.  I did find some mention of
such items in the perlguts man page.

   The first one seems to be saying:
" There exists a scalar of unknown value. "
" There is a reference pointing to 0x8c64f64 located at 0x8c64f58."
(etc)

   Is there some way for me to get at the symbol table and find out what's
at 0x8c64f58?  I sure would like to troubleshoot this in some other way
than just removing pieces  of the app until it goes away....  Is there
a
"usual cause" for such distress in the cgiapp environment?  BTW, the app
seems to work fine.

Thanks in advance,

                       - Jerry Kaidor
