perl and mysql

[aardvarkf]

I've had problems with some text files being deleted by my cgi scripts when they get used too many times. I heard that that won't happen with mysql. I looked for a tutorial on how to use it in a script, but I couldn't find one. Can anyone help my out or point my in the right direction? Thanks.

try locking your files using flock()

I do use that, but it still happens when the script is used a couple thousand times a day.
