SID-00508: The word CGI is displayed on all webs

Hello. I've just migrated an old TWiki 4.0 to a new one 4.3.1 Now on each web, before "special" word i have the letter 'CGI' that are displayed. It's only before some special html words. Example on Main/WebNotify:

he general format of a subscription is:

three spaces CGI * subscriber [ CGI : topics ]

I don't know why the word CGI is alway displayed, and cannot find what is the root cause. Any suggestions?

Discussion and Answer

I have seen that question before. I think it was a bug in the CGI Perl module. Try updating your CGI module.

Thanks Peter, that may be the problem. When i run the configure script i have a warning about perl CGI:

Warning: Perl CGI version 3.11 or higher is recommended to avoid problems with mod_perl.

I don't want to upgrade the perl CGI for the whole web server because it hosts plenty websites which depends on this version of perl CGI.
