Is this an fs_signup_server misconfiguration?

[Matt Joerson]

Greetings list.

My installation of Freeside  version 1.4.1beta4 has
gone quite well. The system is up and running. Test
accounts are starting and suspending as they should
and all my exports are working great!

Having seen all of this work so well, I decided to
setup fs_signup_server.  
I have the client side running on a separtate machine
with 
Apache-AdvancedExtranetServer/1.3.26 under the
freeside user. On the freeside
server I am running PostgreSQL version 7.2.3, Apache
version 1.3.19, 
DBD-Pg-1.13.  I am getting the following from the
debug of fs_signup_server 
when I run it with "fs_signup_server manny
signupserver.test.com 1 1" try to 
post data from the client machine:

[fs_signup_server] Reading (waiting for) signup
data...
[fs_signupd] sending error to local client...
[fs_signupd] sending signup info...

As you can see, the username I am trying to add
(user1) is 5 characters 
long. However, this error message appears on the
client html display: 
"Error: Illegal username (error code illegal_username)
(2-8):"

I have tried changing both  usernamemin and 
usernamemax to higher 
and lower numbers (knowing full well it wouldn't help,
but what the heck). 

I notice in the log file it shows "reading error from
remote server...",
but I find no error in apache error logs. So I tried
rebuilding everything 
for the client side to make sure there were no
problems and tried again
with same results.

I looked for a README for fs_signup_server, but
haven't seen one.

Again, everything else is working great!  Why does
this not see that 
the username is well within the specified character
count?  Any 
idea what I have done wrong?

Help greatly appreciated.

Other possibly helpful info:
Both run linux kernel 2.4.19
Perl version 5.8.0 on client & 5.6.0 on server

Server only:
PostgreSQL version 7.2.3 
Apache version 1.3.19 
DBD-Pg-1.13
DBIx-DataSource-0.02
DBIx-DBSchema-0.21 
Apache::ASP

Thanks,

Matt
