Hi,

I've had my ikonboard for a long time and don't have a clue why the following error happened today:

Ikonboard has exited with the following error:

Modification of a read-only value attempted

This error was reported at: /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/i386-linux/DBI.pm line 279, line 64.

Would you please help? What do I do? My board is at http://gracecentered.com/cgi-bin/forum/ikonboard.cgi

Thanks

Lee

Well, here is the offending line from DBI.pm:

275 # check for weaken support, used by ChildHandles
276 my $HAS_WEAKEN = eval {
277 require Scalar::Util;
278 # this will croak() if this Scalar::Util doesn't have a working weaken().
279 Scalar::Util::weaken(my $test = \"foo");
280 1;
281 };It appears that something within Scalar::Util is broken (doesn't have a working weaken), therefore it is croaking (the error). You may want to contact your host or the providers of the Ikonboard for possible scenarios involving Scalar::Util. Also, may be something involving a child process on the server. Hopefully, someone can nail it down for you.
