[MacPerl] Multiple Simultaneous Requests: MPCGI_06Feb96

[David Steffen <steffen@biomedcomp.com>]

Howdy!

  We are using MPCGI_06Feb96 to write acgi scripts for Quid Pro Quo on a 
PowerComputing Power Tower 180e to run under MacOS 7.5.5.  We are using 
acgi rather than cgi to enable server push; we need to send part of the 
page to prevent clients from timing out and alerting users to expect a 
wait.

  We encounter trouble if a user hits a perl acgi while a previous perl 
acgi is still running.  If the same perl acgi is hit twice, the second 
hit is ignored (and the users client eventually times out).  If a 
different perl acgi is hit, the server crashes.

  Is this a known limitation of MPCGI_06Feb96, or have we set up 
something incorrectly?

  Any suggestions for a work-around?
