Re: [BackupPC-users] getaddrinfo is not a valid Socket macro after Update to version 4.0.0
Craig, I have installed BackupPC Version 4.2.1 and it resolved the problem and of course I had to update other software related. Thanks for your help.

[BackupPC-users] getaddrinfo is not a valid Socket macro after Update to version 4.0.0
Hi, I am using BackupPC software for more that 4 years for my job and I never had problem but last week I had the bad idea to update the software to version 4.0.0 and now I have a problem running backups. I got the following error: active1: getaddrinfo is not a valid Socket macro at /usr/share/BackupPC/lib/BackupPC/Lib.pm line 1412 I have found an email with the same problem from 2017, I have the same perl version and socket, I have installed cpan and run install Socket but didn't help. Do you have another suggestion to resolve the problem? Do I have to install a new version of Perl?, I think I can install a new version in different directory but how BackupPC will point to it. root@sv02 usr]# perl -v This is perl, v5.10.1 (*) built for x86_64-linux-thread-multi Copyright 1987-2009, Larry Wall Perl may be copied only under the terms of either the Artistic License or the GNU General Public License, which may be found in the Perl 5 source kit.
