No SCALAR param in Bind!

hi, maybe someone of you guys will help me on this case, as i did a search on the whole internet and could spot anyone having the same problem as i have. well, since we use OTRS on a productive manner i can find over and over again this kind of error in the logs: [Tue Jun 23 16:39:17 2009][Error][Kernel::System::User::GetUserData][164] No SCALAR param in Bind! well, actually everything works pretty good... however we experience sometimes some strange DB behaviour that could only be resolved with a restart of the OTRS/apache service... and since i figured out, that this "no scalar param in bind" can be found in the DB.pm file, i am not sure if there is maybe a coincidence... here is our system overview: windows 2003 mssql 2008 apache 2.2.10 perl 5.10.0.1004 mod_perl 2.0.4 otrs 2.3.4 thanks a lot for every hint that might solve this issue. regards, patrick.

Hello Patrick,
I am going to have to say that running Perl 5.10 is most likely your
problem. I have seen funny things with DBI and Perl 5.10 in the past. I'd
suggest downgrading back to Perl 5.8 which is rock solid.
I have running quite close to the same environment as you, As I am using a
MSSQL 2005 database with my mod_perl dispatcher running with Apache 2.2.4 on
Linux.
Thanks.

here is our system overview:
windows 2003

apache 2.2.10
perl 5.10.0.1004
mod_perl 2.0.4
otrs 2.3.4
thanks a lot for every hint that might solve this issue.

Can you tell me what "funny things" happened? Did you file a bugreport for perl or the DBI module? Perl 5.10.1 will be released within few weeks. And as DBI is a very important module for Perl programmers, regressions should be fixed. Cheers, Renée -- Perl-Magazin: http://perl-magazin.de Perl-Nachrichten: http://perl-nachrichten.de
