comment on

Greetings,
Thanks to the comment of a more experienced monk I have been made aware of a vast field of software engineering known as message queue.
After a bit of googling and a lot of stackoverflowing I went to have a look at Spread. Since it has a package on cpan I decided to install it (using someone else's better built code would save me a lot of debugging and rewriting). Then I got this :

I'm using debian wheezy, it seems other peoples have encountered the same problem but I had no luck finding an answer, so if anyone here used that package successfully I'd love to know how (sh|h)e did it.
Cheers!

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
