what do these errors mean?

Hello all,

I noticed the error_log on my Apache/2.0.48 webserver myhost.some.edu
(RHEL 3) had errors like this:

[Tue Nov 22 12:19:17 2005] [error] [client 129.186.4.215] SV =
RV(0xa4dab00) at
0xa51ec2c, referer: http://myhost.some.edu/cgi-bin/test.cgi
[Tue Nov 22 12:19:17 2005] [error] [client 129.186.4.215] REFCNT = 2,
referer:
http://myhost.some.edu/cgi-bin/test.cgi
[Tue Nov 22 12:19:17 2005] [error] [client 129.186.4.215] FLAGS =
(ROK), refer
er: http://myhost.some.edu/cgi-bin/test.cgi
[Tue Nov 22 12:19:17 2005] [error] [client 129.186.4.215] RV =
0xa51ec14, refe
rer: http://myhost.some.edu/cgi-bin/test.cgi

test.cgi is written in Perl. What do these errors mean and what might
be the cause? I've google'd and found Devel::Peek module generates
those errors. But test.cgi does not use this module at all.

Thanks in advance,

Bing

Can you give all lines? Looks like you are a few missing.

Hmmm...you mean the lines from the error_log I posted were not complete
or there should be more lines? I just looked at the error_log again,
similar errors also occurred at other times. But the pattern seems to
be same. Would you be more specific about what were expected? Thanks
much for the help.

(if you don't understand quoting, make sure you read up on how to do that)

The error looks like it comes from Perl, and I doubt if that are all
lines. If it *are* all lines, then it's not clear to me what causes it.
