[rt-devel] FastCGI: can't use undefined value as filehandle reference

[Matthew Kalastro]

Thanks for getting back to me Feargal.

I did bang my head against it until I got it fixed.  Here's what I changed in
FCGI.pm (starting at line 75):

    # mkalastro at soe; added two lines below
    open LISTEN_SOCK, "<&=0";
    $self->{listen_sock} = \*LISTEN_SOCK;
    # below croaked during compile: "Can't use an undefined value as filehandle
reference at FCGI.pm line 75"
    #open $self->{listen_sock}, "<&=0";
    bless $self, "FCGI";

Pretty simple and seemed to do the trick.

Thanks again,
Matthew
