I was worried is was due to a time skew problem I was experiencing on my VPS in the last month, though the time is right now and still comments do not appear on blog posts like <http://natalian.org/archives/2010/03/25/BBC_News_complaints/>
-# Getting closer
+# Debugging templates
- hendry@webconverger templates$ for i in *.tmpl; do ./test-template.perl $i || echo $i has an error; done
- HTML::Template->new() : At least one <TMPL_IF> or <TMPL_UNLESS> not terminated at end of file! at /usr/share/perl5/HTML/Template.pm line 2351.
- page.tmpl has an error
- hendry@webconverger templates$ cat test-template.perl
+`sudo apt-get install libhtml-template-compiled-perl`

- my $htc = HTML::Template->new(filename => "$ARGV[0]");

+ Missing closing tag for 'IF' atend of page.tmpl line 159

I think the problem was before that it was `<TMPL_IF COMMENTS>` and now it is `<TMPL_IF NAME="COMMENTS">` ?
