[rt-users] Perl is Broken after Centos 5.4 update

[Mike]

I am disappointed to report that the fix did not resolve my issues.

I still receive “httpd dead but subsys locked” when restarting httd.

When I try to get to RT, it attempts to open a xxxx.part file. xxxx changes each time.

 

Are there other cpan modules that I need to install?

Could there be scripts that are no longer available?

FYI. I am also running RTFM.

 

Thank you in advance,

-Mike Sitzer

How to fix it:
cpan File::Temp

How to future proof it:
Setup cpan to install File::Temp in site_perl instead of the default location, that way it won't get overwritten next time perl is updated.

I was running Centos 5.2, mysql and modperl2.

Update brought down Centos 5.4 and a gazillion other updates. 

After which: 

Apache would not start. 

"make testdeps" will not run with *** No rule to make target `testdeps'.  Stop. error.

installed dependancies using "perl sbin/rt-test-dependencies --with-mysql --with-modper2 --install

Apache starts with “httpd dead but subsys locked” error.

 

- yum upgrade perl-File-Temp
455 packages excluded due to repository priority protections
Setting up Upgrade Process
Package(s) perl-File-Temp available, but not installed.
No Packages marked for Update

 

I see a lot of talk about how redhat messed up perl, but I have not seen clear instructions on how to fix or prevent it again.
