Hi,

Correct, I would not want to change the table directly (even though that would be easier at this point). I try setting values like the example shows (ie. visa_number). But it never makes it back to the database table. Here is some example code from my script:

... Other code ....

my %session;
tie %session, 'Apache::Session::MySQL', $cookie, {
DataSource => 'dbi:mysql:sessions', #these arguments are
UserName => '*******', #required when using
Password => '*******', #MySQL.pm
LockDataSource => 'dbi:mysql:sessions',
LockUserName => '*******',
LockPassword => '*******'
};

$session{a_session}=localtime();
$session{somenumber}='123456';

... Other code ....

untie %session;
undef %session;

Again, nothing seems to make it back into the table. =(

Any Ideas?

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
