Incidentally what's your perl version in SuSE SLES 10? It seems like the 'mkdir' perl command doesn't work correctly.

thanks for fixing the problem in the distribution. Funny thing that this breaks on our Perl, it caused me some headache until I figured out what was going on... On our target system we are using the Perl interpreter that is shipped with SLES 10: $ perl --version This is perl, v5.8.8 built for x86_64-linux-thread-multi $ rpm -qi perl Name : perl Relocations: (not relocatable) Version : 5.8.8 Vendor: SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Nuernberg, Germany Release : 14.10 Build Date: Fri Jul 11 17:03:08 2008 Install Date: Fri Nov 21 17:39:25 2008 Build Host: smetana.suse.de Group : Development/Languages/Perl Source RPM: perl-5.8.8-14.10.src.rpm cheers Martin

Weird. If you do this: bash% perl -e 'do { mkdir || die "lame: $!\n" } for map "/tmp/$_", qw( foo bar biz baz )' bash% ls /tmp Does it create the directories, or not? It works fine for me. It may be a week or two until the next release. I'm trying to get the openid login stuff finished. It's almost there.

no joy: $ perl -e 'do { mkdir || die "lame: $!\n" } for map "/tmp/$_", qw( foo bar )' Not enough arguments for mkdir at -e line 1, near "mkdir ||" Execution of -e aborted due to compilation errors.

Aha. `perldoc -f mkdir` in 5.8.8 does not say it supplies $_ if EXPR is omitted. That must have been added in 5.8.10. I'm getting close to the next release.

Yargh, I haven't had time to figure out the OpenID redirect layer yet, but this has stalled too long. I'll disable that module and release a bugfix version today.

Today meaning 10 days later.... I think the solution I am uploading now will work, but I do not have a test for it. I also put in some Log::Log4perl statements to dump more details about the error. I was conservative and only skip errors when the code is NOTOKEN. It would be nice to have a test script that issues a request with a bad cookie line... unfortunately Apache::Test uses LWP::UserAgent and I'm not sure how to trick HTTP::Cookies into sending a malformed cookie. Maybe setting the header in the $ua just before the request. I am going to go ahead and release 1.0.101, please let me know if it works. --mark-- Mark

Should be fixed in latest version 1.0.111. I think it was fixed in the last version actually. Please let me know if it causes any other errors with perl 5.8.8. Thanks! --mark--
