Module​: CGI.PM version 3.15

OS​: windows 2003, using IIS 6

Issue​:

when executing

perl -MCGI -w -e"print CGI->new->url(-relative => 1)"

I get the error

"Use of uninitialized value in substitution (s///) at (eval 4)

Use of uninitialized value in print at -e line 1"

See http​://bugzilla.mozilla.org, bug 332555.

Was fixed by applying patch​:

Attached is cgi v 3.15 with the patch applied for iis that was
mentioned in this bug report. This download will save you trying to
manually apply the patch. I have tested this under iis 5.1 and iis 6
and it works and gets rid of the errors. If you are using bugzilla
under windows and active perl, assuming you have active perl already
installed, simply extract the files/folders from the zip file then
copy all files and folders to c​:\perl\lib (assuming active perl is
installed to your c​: drive) and answer yes to overwrite everything in
the c​:\perl\lib folder to apply this fix. Then you will no longer get
the error mentioned here that iis is raising. I am running bugzilla 3,
ActivePerl-5.8.8.820-MSWin32-x86-274739.msi, and mysql-essential-
5.0.45-win32.msi under windows xp pro, windows server 2000, and 2003
with no errors raised from iis 5 or iis 6 after applying this patch.

This bug also occurs on apache under linux but in a more minor way​: puts
error messages into the log, see
