In a previous thread, I am attempting to clear a problem with the Perl Modules in a server which had multiple releases of Perl. To document this, I offer the following:
cd /usr/lib/perl5 [root@(protected) perl5]# ls 5.8.5/ 5.8.6/ site_perl/ vendor_perl/ [root@(protected) perl5]# ls site_perl 5.8.5/ 5.8.6/ [root@(protected) perl5]# ls vendor_perl/ 5.8.1/ 5.8.2/ 5.8.3/ 5.8.4/ 5.8.5/ 5.8.6/
I am not certain about the search characteristics of perl, but I also offer the following:
[root@(protected) perl5]# which perl /usr/bin/perl [root@(protected) perl5]# ll /usr/bin/perl lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 5 May 25 16:12 /usr/bin/perl -> perl5* [root@(protected) perl5]# ll /usr/bin/perl5 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 May 25 16:12 /usr/bin/perl5 -> perl5.8.6* [root@(protected) perl5]# ll /usr/bin/perl5.8.6 -rwxr-xr-x 2 root root 10232 Dec 6 2005 /usr/bin/perl5.8.6*
Does this mean that perl ONLY loads the information in perl5, site_perl and vendor_perl for version 5.8.6?
Can I safely remove any of the other versions?
Any help in clarifying this problem would be appreciated:
Can't locate object method "finish" via package "DBI::db" at /var/www/html/.ServAdmin/ServerAdministrator.pm line 70.
Can anyone tell me which package is being used?
TIA
