[cobalt-users] Internal Server Error on Raq4 Admin Gui

[John K Mitchell <johnm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi there,

A few days ago I patched a Raq4 with the Apache & mod_ssl Security 
Update 2.0.1 patch (I know it was released a month ago but...)

This needed a reboot but when the server came back the httpd demon 
refused to start.  This is now running but the Admin Gui reports 
internal server errors when trying to access it.

I've looked in the adm_error file and found the following :-

"use" not allowed in expression at 
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/Cobalt/Locale.pm line 18, at end of line
BEGIN not safe after errors--compilation aborted at 
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/Cobalt/Locale.pm line 18.
END failed--cleanup aborted at 
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/Cobalt/Locale.pm line 5.
END failed--cleanup aborted at 
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/Cobalt/Locale.pm line 7.

I take it that this means that there is a problem on the Cobalt Perl 
scripts, this have not been changed however.

Does anyone have any ideas how I can fix this problem - I do have 
another Raq4 that I could copy files from if needed but I have no idea 
if it is as easy as this or even which files I would need to copy.

Just to mention that I've tried the standard Meta-Verify process but 
that this also reports an error in Perl and will not run.

Any suggestions would be gratefully received.

Cheers

John
