The syntax seems fine to me, even the original version. I must have missed something about MySQL configuration, or basic concepts. Appreciate any advise.

What happens if you make a (or move the) file called "hello.cgi" and put it inside /usr/lib/cgi-bin/ and then change the line to:
Code:
my $filename = 'hello.cgi';

I don't think this has anything to do with your MySQL config. If this fails, hopefully someone with more knowledge than me can be able to help you out.

Best,

Dave
