Re: [rt-users] RT stopped working after latest yum updates

2008-08-01 Thread Brian Desmond
Hi All,

This now seems to be fixed for me. Here's how:

Similar story here - CentOS 5.2 / rt-3.6.6

After yum updates, apache would not restart:

[Mon Jul 28 10:33:48 2008] [error] File::Temp version 0.18 required--this is
only version 0.16 at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/MIME/Tools.pm line

/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/MIME/Tools.pm line 14.\nCompilation failed in
require at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/MIME/Entity.pm line 233.\nBEGIN

failed--compilation aborted at /opt/rt3/bin/webmux.pl line 68.\nCompilation
failed in require at (eval 2) line 1.\n

The perl update installed by yum clobbered version 0.20 of File::Temp
installed for RT.

After re-installing it, apache would start, but the RT login page was blank
- the browser did not attempt to download any file.


make fixdeps 
/usr/bin/perl ./sbin/rt-test-dependencies --verbose --install --with-mysql

[...snip...]

Everything was found.



My Scalar::Util was from Scalar-List-Utils-1.19 was from my Bugzilla 3.0.x
install. Inspite of all seeming to be good with Bugzilla, I reinstalled it
based on Jesse's hunch below, restarted Apache, and I now can log in.

Thus far, things now seem to be back to normal.

Regards,

Brian

 Hi Jesse

 I have managed to resolve the issues here.

 I only have one last issue. All RT emails are stuck in the sendmail  
 queue with this error:

 (Deferred: prog mailer (/usr/sbin/smrsh) exited with EX_TEMPF)
 |/opt/rt3/bin/rt-mailgate --queue 'IT

 Can you help with this please?


Just tell sendmail to run the queue again now that RT is accepting  
mail again.

 Thanks

 Kobus

  If you reinstall it, the issue should go away.

  Now the Upgrade install did the required testdeps/fixdeps, and that

  During my testing I found out the following:  If I removed the
  perlhandler directive in the apache config, the site came up, but  
 it
  was the you're almost there page.  Putting it back in brought up
  the download again.  I had no errors anywhere in any log files.
 
  My guess is that mason is crashing somewhere and the resulting zero
  length file returned to the browser doesn't have any mime type so  
 it
  tries to download a file.  Unfortunately, fixing that is beyond my
  current level with RT/Perl and Mason.
 
  I know this may not have helped much, and I apologize, but maybe it
  will provide a little more info to get you or the community on the
  way.
 
  Let us know what you eventually do to fix this.  I think it's going
  to be a recurring theme with the perl/myself update.
