Lines 257 and 282 are relative to a package Amavis::Lookup::SQLfield,
counting from a __DATA__ line.
Search forward for:
sub lookup_sql(
then search backwards for:
__DATA__
then go down 257 lines, arriving at or near:
$match = {}; @$match{@names} = @$a_ref;
The 282 then corresponds to a
die $err;
a bit further down, which caught the eval failure and
propagated it further.
This is the area in question:
$conn_h->execute($sel,@pos_args); # do the query
# fetch query results
while ( defined($a_ref=$conn_h->fetchrow_arrayref($sel)) ) {
my(@names) = @{$conn_h->sth($sel)->{NAME_lc}};
$match = {}; @$match{@names} = @$a_ref;
if ($self->{clause_name} eq 'sel_policy' &&
!exists $match->{'local'} && $match->{'email'} eq '@.') {
[...]
} or do {
my($err) = $@ ne '' ? $@ : "errno=$!"; chomp $err;
do_log(-1, "lookup_sql: %s, %s, %s", $err, $DBI::err, $DBI::errstr);
die $err if $err =~ /^timed out\b/; # resignal timeout
die $err;
};

Puzzling. The "while (defined($a_ref..." should ensure that
we only enter the loop when $a_ref is defined, yet the @$a_ref
appparently thinks it is undefined. I could be wrong by a line or two,
but this is the area that needs to be investigated. I don't see
what could be wrong there, nor do I remember seeing a similar report.
Perhaps adding a couple of calls to do_log in that area would
shed some light on the problem.
Btw, which version of perl is running now, and which version
of amavisd was running before the upgrade.
