Perl Compress::Zlib and Scalar::Util problem
Hi,
I am running SUSE 10 Enterprise server. I had installed a server (proserver) for a specific application and it was running well. I updated my system and restarted it and when I try to rerun the server I got this error message and the server wont run . Upon checking up the problem it looked like there is some problem with the Scalar::Util and I might have to fix it up. I want to know how I could fix this problem/ how to reinstall Scalar:Util and restore perl with installed modules as normal before.
Thanks for any help

Hi,
I did try to install Compress::Zlib but I get an error which basically says that it wont install without force.

I tried install it as SU before
The force install works and
cpan> install Compress::Zlib
Compress::Zlib is up to date.
cpan> install Scalar::Util
Scalar::Util is up to date.
Thanks! -*
But my Proserver isnt running and giving the same error as before any suggestions please?

Note that the module names are case sensitive, so Compress::Zlib is different than Compress::zlib. Make sure you have the correct module installed.
What is:
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5
../blib/lib/Bio/Das/ProSer
In your "perl -V", you removed the line giving the version of perl. Do you have version 5.8.8 (revision 5 version 8 subversion 8)?

Excellent !
So is it working now? I hadn't had a chance to respond to your most recent comment. What was it that fixed it?
perl -MCPAN -e 'install Compress::zlib'
