good catch, but still no mango... I live in Hawaii  ;-)

in fact the above give worse results... doesn't send no file written 
and nothing sent back out to stand out


right... I fixed it, still no go on OSX server running Revolution 
Darwin Engine  2.1.2

I moved all scripts and some test directories to a solaris server in 
Honolulu... using an old version of metacard engine as interpreter for 
the post, which is come from a REV 2.2. app... everything works fine...

so, now it has to be

a) problem with Apache on OSX server
b) problem with Revolution Darwin engine on OSX server
c) Problem with the OSX file system itself?

sometimes the CGI does get data in the pipe from the POST and sometimes 
it is simply fired, but no data comes into stdIn at all....

Very difficult to debug..

help!
