Mark,
We have been using perl for nearly 6 years,
5 years in production, 2 years with mod_perl.
We have had a HP3000 as a legacy system for 3
years, and while I think that porting perl to mainframes
is an incredible accomplishment.... and I still
can nearly picture the look on the porters face as
he/she executed the first script.... but...
I just think that there are better machines out
there that don't cost 15.2 billion dollars and some
odd cents to run a crippled version of Apache on
and run their 500 bjillion dollar Legacy Mail Order
eCommerce Solution all on the same box.
This is a bad habit! You don't do it just because you can!
A $5000 Linux box running mod_perl will kick its butt!
Don't get me wrong, I think that teaching mainframers that
UNIX is really what they are missing in their life...
I think that the real question should be...
Are there any perl/DBI drivers (DBD) for the IMAGE database?
THAT IS THE QUESTION!
I will shut up... there could be other reasons that I hadn't
really thought about... :-)
If the answer is yes...
Then I will fall off by chair and hit my chin on my desk!

Hi Joe,
This looks like you're using the bixby.org version of Apache instead of the
CSY
version.
My latest bixby.org version comes with mod_perl bundled in. If you don't
have
Perl on your machine, then you will need to edit httpd.conf and disable the
mod_perl stuff. The messages you are seeing are from mod_perl trying to
load
initialization stuff from a non-existent PERL account.
Of course, you *could* do yourself a favor and just install Perl in order to
solve this problem. ;-) Perl is extremely cool and powerful.
Regarding editors, if you come to hear my POSIX Programming talk at next
month's Solution Symposium, I will teach you everything you need to know
about
vi in just 3 slides. ;-) Vi isn't evil or unusable; it's just different
compared to what people are used to on MPE.
The frombyte and tobyte shell commands can be used to convert bytestream
files
to MPE files and back again in order to use MPE-style editors. There may be
ISV editors such as QEDIT that can directly handle bytestream files without
needing to convert them first.
The best place to set TZ is as a CI variable in your system logon UDC.
