Raq 4 Problem

[Darren Walker]

Hi Julian,

I commented out those lines, and then tried again, but then I got messages
to say that other perl modules werent installed or couldn't be found. I
found a manual on cpan, and installed all the modules supplied with
mailscanner that I could find manually.

After which I reinstalled MailScanner but now I get the following error
---SNIP-----
    Can't locate MIME/Parser.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/lib/MailScanner
/usr/lib/perl5/5.00503/i386-linux /usr/lib/perl5/5.00503
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/i386-linux /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005 .
/usr/lib/MailScanner) at /usr/lib/MailScanner/MailScanner/MCPMessage.pm line
40.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at
/usr/lib/MailScanner/MailScanner/MCPMessage.pm line 40.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/sbin/MailScanner line 73.


---SNIP---

I have checked that the file and directory are present and I can read the
file. I have updated the MIME/Parser.pm via cpan. 

I have removed mailscanner 'rpm -e mailscanner' and then reinstalled it but
all to no avail.

Im stuck, I was going to try an older copy of MailScanner, but would rather
use a later version if possible.

Cheers

Darren

You can probably do quite happily without the "use bytes" or "require
bytes.pm" lines.

cd /usr/lib/MailScanner/MailScanner
grep 'use bytes' *pm

Comment out the line in Log.pm and both of the lines in Message.pm.

Then stop and restart MailScanner.
