Clarification: PERL SUPPORT WAS DROPPED
Although recent developments were discussed in one of the last
newsletters (including clear news on our mainpages and related posts
in our discussion board), some members are still contacting us because
their scripts are 'suddenly' not working anymore.
Due to that fact we'd like to clarify the whole situation and inform
those who were not reading the newsletter in question (which was sent
to ALL members), news on our mainpages or related posts.
QUOTING NEWSLETTER ISSUE 9/2000
(...)
ALTHOUGH WE'RE NOT HAPPY WITH HAVING TO DO SO, PERL SUPPORT WILL HAVE
TO BE DROPPED (AT LEAST UNTIL NEW HARDWARE CAPACITIES HAVE ARRIVED).
In the case you were interested in mycgiserver because of its support
for Perl only and you will no longer have use for your account, you
may terminate your account immediately by following this URL:
We hope to be able to enable Perl support again as soon as additional
CPU resources will be available.
As many of our members rely on Perl support, we will give you time to
move your projects to a different Perl hosting service in order not to
interrupt access.
ACCORDING TO CURRENT PLANS, REQUEST TO PERL SCRIPTS WILL BE
INEFFECTIVE (HTTP 403 RESPONSE) BEGINNING FROM 2000-11-11 00:00:00
CET.
(...)
Summing up, we do not provide support for Perl anymore.
PLEASE TERMINATE YOUR ACCOUNT IN THE CASE YOU HAVE NO USE FOR IT
ANYMORE, THIS CAN BE DONE BY FOLLOWING THIS URL:
There are plenty of services supporting this programming languages
available, a short list (which is by no means complete and may contain
invalid items) follows for your convenience:
