Hi,

Such great software - it has saved me untold hours of pain.

Upon getting back into working with the MOMspider after a six month pause,
I found that it was dumping core, so I've tried to install it on my new
machine, an SGI running IRIX 6.2.  I am using perl 4.036 and a fresh
install of libwww-0.40.  I've looked through the archives and found
nothing, so here goes: 

The first error was with socket.ph:

Illegal expression (COND_EXPR) as lvalue in file
/usr/lib/perl/sys/socket.ph at line 98, next 2 tokens ") )"

so I followed the instructions and
commented out the offending lines 
in socket.ph:

# if (defined ((defined(&_KERNEL) ? &_KERNEL : 0)) ) {
# }

This seemed to work- it runs, but
now I'm getting weird 602 errors,
where

get -e http://urizen.village.virginia.edu/

produces


GET http://urizen.village.virginia.edu/ HTTP/1.0 User-Agent: GET/0.5
libwww-perl/0.40 From: dfa4y@urizen.village.Virginia.EDU

I tried several different servers,
and it wouldn't talk to any of them.

I tried looking at /usr/include/sys-
whoosh, totally over my head.  Yikes.

Thanks,
Dan

ps. My application is at http://urizen.village.virginia.edu/ic - I'm
making VRML models from the output from a database generated by slightly
modified momevent.pl.
