error running --action #3

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
When trying to run openfpc (openfpc -a start) I get the following output...

[*] OpenFPC instance openfpc-default.conf

<...>

 -  SESSION DATABASE NAME: openfpc
 -  SESSION LAG:           0
Undefined subroutine &main::findcmd called at /usr/bin/openfpc line 235.

Don't understand where that error would come from. Thanks.

Actually I fixed that by inserting a blank line between the findcmd header and 
function but now I have a new issue. The openfpc-queued script will not run. 
Error below..

OpenFPC requires perl 5.10 (released in 2007), and it looks like you're running 
5.8. 

You have three options:

- Upgrade the version of Centos to something that ships with a modern Perl 
distribution
- Install a second copy of Perl somewhere and use that instead of the system 
provided one
- Use a different Linux distribution that includes a modern Perl

So if I did want to use say something like activeperl with openfpc how would I 
let the install know which perl to  use?

We should add a test for the perl version. RHEL 5 runs perl 5.8, so that 
results in the same error.

I know a lot of people out there are still using this version too!

I ran into this error recently when building a new sensor under RHEL5. Pretty 
frustrating as you don't realise till the very end when you try and run openfpc.

Agreed. This is probably the most common question that lands in my inbox.
I've been really busy recently, so a patch against CURRENT would be nice :)
