So you could try to * create the directories Kernel/cpan-lib/Net/DNS/Resolver/ * get old, working versions of these two files (from cpan.org), * copy them to Kernel/cpan-lib/: * Kernel/cpan-lib/Net/DNS/Question.pm * Kernel/cpan-lib/Net/DNS/Resolver/Base.pm
Thanks for the suggestion, I did as you suggested and got the 610 versions from CPAN ... No luck, still the same error, I guess the webserver still gets the global modules ... As I am not a perl "guru", do you have any suggestions to put these "old" modules to work ?
Some digging around in perl module land told me that this is not going to work ... Perl is always preferring system modules above local modules. In the index.pl both extra local dirs are "pushed" onto @INC ... and as push means "apend", local modules with the same name as global modules wil never be used ...
SO, back to zero ...
You can try extending @INC. add the line: unshift @INC, "/{insertFullPathHere}/Kernel/cpan-lib/Net/DNS/"; to index.pl, this way you will search that directory first while using index.pl. Would that do what you need? Hope this helps. Greg Horne geh gehorne
