yes iron is still down, it was up for a little bit last night after being down all day and now it is down again (went down at 3am central).

[deras]

Iron is up but my cgi scripts don't work...

i think many of the perl modules are missing...

[deras]

here is the error from one of my scripts...

Software error:
Can't locate DBI.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/lib/perl5/5.6.1/i686-linux /usr/lib/perl5/5.6.1 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/i686-linux /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.0 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl .) at urls.pl line 4.

For help, please send mail to the webmaster (webmaster@sminds.com), giving this error message and the time and date of the error.

I'm getting the same thing, I've updated my trouble ticket with this new problem.

I'm on IRON also.

Same thing's happening on Plutonium. :-(

[Julian Muñoz]

It's up for me at 1:50 GMT-5. Looks like most of the problems are now fixed, at least for me.

[Julian Muñoz]

Perl modules are not installed.... My CGI scripts are useless too..

[deras]

if you are a moderator do you have an communication with the support staff on this issue? when is this going to get fixed? my site is basically cgi driven

[Julian Muñoz]

No I'm not a mod, sorry. And I'm having communication problems with them too... Sorry to hear that your site is affected by the Perl modules not being installed, and I hope you get all your problems fixed as soon as possible.

[deras]

progress... my cgi-scripts are now working...

the only remaining problem is a php image drawing function i use on my site is not working....

here is the function...

<?php

header("Content-type: image/png");

$im = ImageCreateFromPng("math2.png");

$width=ImageSX($im);

$height=ImageSY($im);

$vunit=330/1;

$hunit=333/2;

$h_coord=28+($h-4)*$hunit;

$v_coord=29+(3.5-$v)*$vunit;

$white=imagecolorallocate($im,255,255,25 5);

$red=imagecolorallocate($im,255,0,0);

imagearc($im,$h_coord,$v_coord,3,3,0,360 ,$red);

imagearc($im,$h_coord,$v_coord,12,12,0,3 60,$red);

imageinterlace($im,1);

ImagePng($im);

?>

here is the error i get when i load the function in a browser

<br />
<b>Fatal error</b>: Call to undefined function: imagecreatefrompng() in <b>/home/sminds/public_html/test/plot.php</b> on line <b>3</b><br />

this is the function...

does php have modules? or did they put in a newer version of php which is incompatible with the above code

[Joshua Clinard]

I'm not totally sure about PHP modules, but I do know that on some machines they upgraded the PHP to a newer version.

[jason]

The php image functions are loaded from a module. When they did the php upgrade, they may not have enabled that module in the new php.ini file. There is already another comment here somewhere about someone else having a php.ini misconfiguration problem. I'd mention it in your support ticket and it should be easy for them to fix.

[megmond]

Well, looking at www.php.net the function is a built-in, and should not require libraries as far as I can see.

Also, functions are case insensitive, so that can't be the problem (although to avoid confusion with variables - they ARE case sensitive - you might want to use lowercase only anyway).

Could be a misconfiguration of some kind on the system as previously mentioned by others. Probably good to open a support ticket about it.

[Julian Muñoz]

On Iron they didn't compile PHP with GD support, so you can't use the functions for image manipulation... I've already requested this to support... Let's wait if they reconsider it....
