Panic after Ubuntu update

[beamends]

Hi all,
once again the Ubuntu upgrade has failed, but now having a working
machine I can't log into LedgerSMB - I can connect to Apache2 ok, but
when LSMB goes to start up things go wrong. I can log into Postgres/psql
ok. After much faffing I think the problem is this (output from running
login.pl in a terminal :

beamends@beamends-1:~$ '/usr/local/ledgersmb/login.pl'
Can't locate LedgerSMB/Sysconfig.pm in @INC (@INC
contains: /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.10.0 /usr/local/share/perl/5.10.0 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.10 /usr/share/perl/5.10 /usr/local/lib/site_perl .) at /usr/local/ledgersmb/login.pl line 52.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/local/ledgersmb/login.pl line
52.

The Apache error log has:

Any ideas - thsi is driving me nuts!

This is the fatal error. It seems that either you don't have MIME::Lite
installed, or it isn't where perl expects it to be.

So,

1. Is it installed? Try "locate MIME/Lite.pm". If not found, install it.

2. If it is installed, you need to find out why the place it is
installed is not in @INC. Let us know where it is installed and we can
maybe suggest what to do.

HTH,

Pete

Hi Pete,
locate returns:

beamends@beamends-1:~$ locate MIME/Lite.pm
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.10.0/MIME/Lite.pm

so I guess it is installed but not in the list (I think) - I'm afraid
the PATH stuff confuses the hell out of me!

Cheers
Richard

I do not know how you've managed to get to this point, but you have 2
options:

1. The fix is probably to uninstall and then reinstall MIME::Lite. When
re-installing it should go in the right place.

2. The workaround is to add the location
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.10.0 to @INC. This can be done using
the environment variable PERL5LIB which you can set in your Apache
configuration. Something like (untested):

        SetEnv PERL5LIB /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.10.0

in your httpd.conf (or sql-ledger.conf) in the Apache tree.

Good luck,

Pete
