Perl is set up, so site installs override vendor installs. Since the module in the vendor directory is working correctly, get rid of the one that doesn't work correctly. Find out where it comes from. Run things like (but not limited to): rpm -qf /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.1/i386-linux-thread-multi/Apache/Log.pm Maybe you've installed something from source some time before. -- Fedora Core release 2 (Tettnang) - Linux 2.6.5-1.358 -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
