Perl Sockets - Error in bi-directional communication

[crawfordr]

Hello,

I have created a perl script that connects to a specific socket (Ip address/port) using protocall of TCP. It is the server socket script. There is also coding to manage multiple handles by usung the select() in the coding. This was needed due to the fact we expect a large volume of transactions at any given time on the client's side. The script's purpose is to connect to the client's port and listen for connections, accept the connections, receive the data, then pass the data to an oracle database function, that function returns different data back to the server script, then sends that data back to the client's file handler that it was received on. The client file handler is waiting for that response. The data must be sent back to the same file handler that it was received on. The problem that I am having is that the client is not receiving the data back. I think there may be problem in how the script is coded to send the data back to the same file handler. I have tried all kinds of things and nothing seems to work. maybe the code should be written a different way.
I have the perl code and can send it for review.

If someone could please help me it would be very much appreciated.

Thanks very much,

Randall

Greetings Randal,

And welcome to TSDN.

It appears that you've already created a cross-forum post on perlmonks. The experts over there will have more time for this type of problem, so I'll let them handle it.
