Can you tell us what's different between your production and dev
environment? That would include how the process is launched as well.
And is there a difference in what modules get imported?

Also, even if you tapped into the cgi module, would you really be able
to give the user a progress bar? It seems that their window would be
tied up by the upload task being performed by the browser.

Gary, I'm sorry I don't have an answer. I guess I've been lucky enough
not to have this problem on production or development.
