Re: cpan problems

I also faced same issue today and just solved it.

issue is with Scalar::Util perl module. Looks like CentOS update installs older version of Scalar::Util module. So perl could not load this module.

To Solve this issue,

extract .tar.gz file and cd Scalar-List-Utils-1.25
perl Makefile.PL
gmake
gmake test
gmake install

 perl -MCPAN -e 'shell'

Spot on Bakkiaraj, thanks! I was receiving the following error when attempting to execute some code, and your solution resolved the situation. BTW I'm running RHEL - 2.6.18-238.19.1.el5. `List::Util object version 1.21 does not match bootstrap parameter 1.25 + at /usr/lib64/perl5/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/XSLoader.pm line + 94. Compilation failed [...]` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

Your message probably saved me hundreds of dollars in customer orders that would have been lost because my scripts started breaking after yum reinstalled Perl 5.8.8 overnight on my CentOS managed cloud server. Rackspace Support helped me scope out the problem, and we found your message on Google. It provided the exact solution to the problem. THANK YOU!	[reply]
