After transfer to new server, doesn't work

Question

Hello iTunes U Administrators,
A short description about my iTunes U experience - none. I am a new hire at my academic institution, and it so happens that the folks with the most experience with setting up iTunes U have just left for vacation.
We just migrated our site to a new server, and iTunes U doesn't open any more. We are using the Perl script version. I have verified that Perl scripts are still able to run on the new server. The "https://deimos.apple.com/WebObjects/Core.woa/Browse/**.**" URL still works when I enter it into a browser.
We are using the version of Perl script that requires the following modules:
URI::Escape
Digest::SHA
Net::HTTP
I am checking with IT to verify that these modules are installed . We are using Perl 5.8.8 on Linux.
The main mode of failure seems to be that "aURL" is not being defined. Here is a snippet from our web page source:
{start of php section}
importrequestvariables("gp");
if($launch == "open")
passthru("valid-file-path/cgi-bin/itunespublic.pl");
echo "<script type='text/javascript'>openApple(aURL); </script>";
{end of php section}
In the perl script, the sub invokeAction() does not seem to assign a value to aURL, even as it generates JavaScript tags and "aURL =".
Any ideas?
- Larry
