The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

YUM Update - Broke PERL

Asked by Fatlog in Linux Distributions, Linux Administration

hi,

am a bit of a newb to linux so apologies!
i have a centos box and made some additions using 'yum'. all worked fine. installed mysql-server, webmin, cvs etc... and they all worked fine. the only issue i had was the repository version of PHP was 4.3.x and i needed 5.x.

after some searching i found that by enabling the 'centosplus' repository and running yum update again i could update the other various components of my server including PHP. as you are probably saying, this was a bad idea!

PERL was also updated and now various parts of Webmin are non-functional. i cant get into apache, cron, file manager etc... also i presume if i were to restart the machine apache probably wouldn't start up again.

so is this fixable? can i rollback the PERL module in some way?

this is the error i get...

Error - Perl execution failed
