Perl DBM Problem

[Astor]

Hi everyone,

I have a bit of a problem. My hosting server changed to a new server, and now I can't open any of my existing DBMs.

Let me further explain. Before, when I created a DBM (say test) it would create 1 file and it will call it "Test".

Now, using the same script, it creates 2 files: "Test.dir" & "Test.pag". The problem is that now I can't open my older DB called just "Test".

I don't assume my server would figure what's going on so I guess one of my questions is how can I convert my "Test" data and convert it to "Test.dir" & "Test.pag" format? Also what would be my best bet in this situation to solve this problem. I've checked and all DBMs are NDBM, so I really don't know what's going on. Any suggestions or info regarding this will be appreciated.

Thanks!

did you check the permissions on the DBM file?

The permissions of my DBMs have not changed, and as I said, it was working 2 days ago. On top of that, the permissions of my "Test" file and my other "Test.dir" & "test.pag" are the same, yet I can access the last two but not my original format.

Could it be that there's a perl module missing?
