Hi, I managed to solve the issue, the problem was the crontab file was pointing to $home/otrs and not /opt/otrs once I changed this, it worked fine. Thanks all.

Download the module from http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/S/SU/SULLR/IO-Socket-SSL-1.31.tar.gz - then install as per the instructions on this site: http://www.thegeekstuff.com/2008/09/how-to-install-perl-modules-manually-and... as root.

Hi,
Can anyone help me with this? Without the email function it's not very useful to implement in my environment.

Dear Mr Marshall,
When I try to install ssl in CPAN this is the output.
cpan[1]> install IO::Socket::SSL CPAN: Storable loaded ok (v2.18) Going to read '/home/msiadmin/.cpan/Metadata' Database was generated on Thu, 17 Dec 2009 03:52:42 GMT CPAN: YAML loaded ok (v0.70) Going to read 77 yaml files from /home/msiadmin/.cpan/build/ CPAN: Time::HiRes loaded ok (v1.9711) DONE Restored the state of none (in 2.5054 secs) IO::Socket::SSL is up to date (1.31).
I did sudo bash and install as root still the same result.
I think my problem is the CPAN is regarding the home folder as "/home/msiadmin/.cpan/Metadata" I need to change this path to "/opt/otrs/.cpan/Metadata" which is the OTRS home folder. Anyone has any clue on how to change this?

Zak,
(1) What happened in during the install? What was the output?
(2) Can you su to root rather than sudo? This is better in server environ IMO.
Is there any other way to run as root?
Try su-ing to root (su -).

Hi,
I had run "sudo perl -MCPAN -e shell" and then run in CPAN I run "install IO::Socket::SSL" But I still see in ./otrs.checkModules that SSL socket is not installed.
Is there any other way to run as root?

Hi Mohamed,
CPAN: Storable loaded ok (v2.18) Going to read '/home/msiadmin/.cpan/Metadata'
You have probably installed the module in the .cpan directory of the msiadmin user. You should really install the library by running CPAN as 'root' so that it will be available to both the OTRS user and the web server user.
Hope this helps, -- Michiel Beijen R&D
