Hi this is interesting that there is an actual division on that line this error can pop up anywhere i am guessing that it is actually the header that is not outputting correctly that is jiggering this i dont think that  $siteTotal is zero maybe its not getting that value? anyway i think it could be a coincidence that it is giving you this line as an error perl gives strange error messages sometimes

simple fix is get another copy for your raq version from somewhere rename old one as .cgi.bak or something course it would be interesting to find out what caused this

has the cgi been updated by some upgrade?

you could try running through the command line and it might give a different or more useful error.

try from that dir

perl -c diskUsage.cgi
# just to check context

then
perl -w diskUsage.cgi
## this will run it without errors and may give a different error message

anyway my 2c worth oh as there is another Gerald (fine name) on this list im going back to my nick wampy

b w wampy
