syntax error line 99
This line is wrong: print(MAIL "Name: $name\nLocation: $location\nHomepage: $homepage\nMessage:$message\n\n\nIP Address: $ip\nIf it's an abusive email please report to: $adminEmailAddress\n"); Illegal use of demiquote. It should be: print(MAIL "Name: $name\nLocation: $location\nHomepage: $homepage\nMessage:$message\n\n\nIP Address: $ip\nIf it is an abusive email please report to: $adminEmailAddress\n"); Throws out the rest as text, all in red. Check your syntax with : perl -W guestbook.cgi Second: index.cgi Gets numerous warnings and one error on Apache server: Can't locate guestbook.cgi in @INC # [line 3] Third: No readme file. Fourth: No descriptive comments in source. More? guestbook.cgi Unquoted string "g" may clash with future reserved word #[line 93.] Illegal character in prototype for main::email : $,$ #[line 117] and [line 122] and #[line 135] Scalar value @days[$wDay] better written as $days[$wDay] # [line 216] Scalar value @months[$month] better written as $months[$month] # [line 217] No information on setting it up, no indication of setting permissions for directory and scripts. Needs work before you can call it a Release.
