--PmA2V3Z32TCmWXqI Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable On Mon, Jun 07, 2004 at 22:05:12 EDT, sammy!!! scribbled these curious markings: > I am getting this error on some websites that use MLDBM after updating=20 > to perl 5.8.4. Any ideas how to save me? >=20 > [Mon Jun 07 21:44:33 2004] [error] [client 64.252.153.134] Byte order=20 > is not compatible at blib/lib/Storable.pm (autosplit into=20 > blib/lib/auto/Storable/thaw.al) line 363, at=20 > /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.4/MLDBM/Serializer/Storable.pm line=20 > 27, referer:=20 >=20 This is because the version of Storable in the Perl core has been updated. This new version includes data size information in the header. Since the FreeBSD port of Perl 5.8.4 uses 64 bits, it falls into the trap noted in the Storable documentation. Please 'perldoc Storable' and search for the error message that you're seeing. It's towards the end of the POD. --=20 I abhor a system designed for the "user", if that word is a coded pejorative meaning "stupid and unsophisticated". -- Ken Thompson - Unix is user friendly. However, it isn't idiot friendly. - Please CC me in all replies, even if I'm on the relevant list(s). --PmA2V3Z32TCmWXqI Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFAxgX+k/lo7zvzJioRAoE4AJ45AdFMzS2y1epg9zvBnTiEmNEOGQCgqQs/ wF6lHkwK5epiFoyQ64PZ9Z0= =HIny -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --PmA2V3Z32TCmWXqI--
