I'm helping my dad out with some of his website issues, so any help is appreciated.

He is getting an error (and no I don't have the exact text at the moment) that there was a fatal error in charlint.pl

The problem apparently started when the site's host updated the version of Perl they are running.

Anyone know if this was a common problem for people or is it just me?

path to perl may have changed:

#!usr/bin/perl

Look in the server error log if you can, most hosts have an error log you can look at.

There are server logs. But I don't know which one of 50 or so it's in, and I don't have permission to download them, only view them.

I'll see if I can get a hold of the log.

look in the error log. If there are multiple error logs look in the most recent one.
