I've been using SBS (LMS) for a few years now and have finally needed
some help with an issue that started happening.
My SBS will not stay running and the server.log shows "Logitech Media
Server died. Restarting.".

In trying to start it from the command line I get the following error:

Code:
--------------------
    
  root@media:/# /usr/sbin/squeezeboxserver /usr/sbin/squeezeboxserver 
--prefsdir /var/lib/squeezeboxserver/prefs --logdir /var/log/squeezeboxs
  erver/ --cachedir /var/lib/squeezeboxserver/cache --charset=utf8
  The following CPAN modules were found but cannot work with Logitech Media 
Server:
  File::BOM:
  Unknown encoding 'UTF-16BE' at /usr/share/squeezeboxserver/CPAN/File/BOM.pm 
line 186
  Compilation failed in require at (eval 71) line 2.
  BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at (eval 71) line 2.
  
  
  To fix this problem you have several options:
  1. Install the latest version of the module(s) using CPAN: sudo cpan 
Some::Module
  2. Update the module's package using apt-get, yum, etc.
  3. Run the .tar.gz version of Logitech Media Server which includes all 
required CPAN modules.
  
--------------------


I have tried doing the sudo cpan File::BOM:

Code:
--------------------
    root@media:/usr/share# cpan File::BOM
  Going to read '/root/.cpan/Metadata'

  New CPAN.pm version (v2.00) available.
  [Currently running version is v1.960001]
  You might want to try
  install CPAN
  reload cpan
  to both upgrade CPAN.pm and run the new version without leaving
  the current session.

  Going to write /root/.cpan/Metadata
  File::BOM is up to date (0.14).
--------------------


I have made sure that I'm up to date on my ubuntu 12.04.

The only thing left to try is #3 from above: 
3. Run the .tar.gz version of Logitech Media Server which includes all
required CPAN modules.
I extracted them all and tried to run but received the same error.

Code:
--------------------
    root@media:/logitechmediaserver-7.7.3-1375965195# 
/usr/sbin/squeezeboxserver /usr/sbin/squeezeboxserver --prefsdir /var
  /lib/squeezeboxserver/prefs --logdir /var/log/squeezeboxserver/ --cachedir 
/var/lib/squeezeboxserver/cache --charset=utf8
  The following CPAN modules were found but cannot work with Logitech Media 
Server:

  2. Update the module's package using apt-get, yum, etc.

required CPAN modules.
--------------------


Can somebody help me with this?  I'm pretty sure this is some sort of a
perl issue and the server is up to date with perl version 5.14.2-6.

Thanks in advance.
