I have a perl script which reads a configuration file. This Script works on SUN as well as Tru64 to certain extend. Since I donot
have all the input files on SUN and Tru64 the script stops. The Problem on Linux is that it dies immediately in line 9 of the Configuration file. Iam using Perl version 5.8 and Redhat 9.0. The
problem is in the routine read_conf of the perl script. Iam not an
expert on Perl. Can any one help me? Am I missing any Perl modules on
Linux? Thanks for your help.
Iam enclosing both files: script and config file
Seems as if the listserver strips out attachments.... Which is not a bad thing, IMHO.

I know that I should have send this problem to Perl FAQ. Since I get
error with Linux I thought that I shall ask here. Sorry for that.
Error I get on Linux:
# ./dnewsreport103.pl -f ./dnewsreport.103.conf
Error in ./dnewsreport.103.conf line 9: must be 'section' instead of '#'
One common problem that presents itself in many ways is the setting of the LANG environment variable. In later versions of RH it often defaults to:
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
try changing that to
LANG=en_US
or whatever you are using minus the .UTF-8
This is just a stab in the dark. YMMV.
