Missing breakpoints while CGI debugging

Hi,

I've found a number of references to this problem, but no solution... sorry
to post again!

Basically, I'm using Eclipse 3.1.0 and EPIC 0.3.12 (although I've tried
other versions and had the same problem), I can debug perl scripts no problem.
 However, when I start a "Perl CGI" debug session, the browser is started,
and the script is run, but EPIC doesn't stop at the beginning of the perl
code (or at any of my breakpoints), and the page just loads unimpeded. 
I've tried the internal browser, IE6 and Firefox, all result in the same
problem.

The following appears in the console (the last two lines after a pause,
by which time the script has run, and the page loaded in the browser).

#### CONSOLE OUTPUT ####

My webserver is apache 2.0.

Any ideas what the problem could be?

Thanks in advance,

Based on the output you quoted, no CGI script is ever being executed. The
EPIC's built-in web server seems to be serving the file index.html to the
client. If no CGI script is run, it is no wonder that the debugger does
not stop anywhere, right?
