I am clueless about PERL so any help would be much appreciated!! The calendar was moved to another machine, NT server, with a newer version of PERL (5.6.1). When trying to access the calendar, I receive the message below. I cannot provide a link because it's on a LAN.  

I have:

1. Re-FTPed in ASCII mode
2. Check the permissions
3. Looked online for help.

Thanks for your help!!

There was an error in your template file. Below is the template file and also the perl code generated from it to help you with debugging.

** syntax error at (eval 1) line 2, near "LAST\" syntax error at (eval 1) line 2, near "NEXT\" syntax error at (eval 1) line 2, near "PREVIOUS\" **

None of those items (LAST, NEXT, WEEK, PREVIOUS, $CGI_URL_QUERYSTRING, etc.) reported in the error message should be on line 2 of the script or template.

I would guess that for some reason the new server is condensing the whole script into a single line (or two lines) instead of interpreting it as separate lines like it should. That may have something to do with the way it interprets the newline characters.

If the script was moved from a Unix based server to the Windows server, you may need to set the FTP client to change the newline characters to DOS based during the upload?

That's just a guess though.
