Peter, maybe the "save stack" is failing because the user owning the 
CGI process does not have write permission on stack file "test1". Web 
servers often run as user "nobody", and so it can be tricky getting 
permissions just right. However, some web servers have CGI setup as 
suexec, which runs the CGI process as your username instead of nobody.

If the permissions issue doesn't pan out, then I would check the web 
server error_log file for any messages from runrev
