Mailscanner perl modules

[Chris Connell]

Hi,

I have had this problem since day one of installing Mailscanner solaris 9
and it haunted me when I upgraded. For some reason when I built perl etc the
modules go in the following place, (possibly due to that I used perl from
the sunfreeware ?)

usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0

However when Mailscanner starts it looks somewhere else so I get the
following error when I start it

Can't locate Net/CIDR.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /opt/MailScanner/lib
/usr/perl5/5.6.1/lib/sun4-solaris-64int /usr/perl5/5.6.1/lib
/usr/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/sun4-solaris-64int /usr/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1
/usr/perl5/site_perl /usr/perl5/vendor_perl/5.6.1/sun4-solaris-64int
/usr/perl5/vendor_perl/5.6.1 /usr/perl5/vendor_perl . /opt/MailScanner/lib)
at /opt/MailScanner/lib/MailScanner/Config.pm line 34.

/opt/MailScanner/lib/MailScanner/Config.pm line 34.
Compilation failed in require at /opt/MailScanner/bin/MailScanner line 41.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /opt/MailScanner/bin/MailScanner line
41.

The fix is to add the statement

use lib "/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0";

in the Mailscanner script, but Im not sure if this is correct. Sometimes the
perl modules go in /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/sun4m-solaris (such
as Compress) could someone tell me what Im doing wrong, and how to put them
all in one (correct) place ?

Thanks

Chris
