-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1
Actually, I've seen this when one perl version tries to use another perl's modules. Another possibility is that the version of Digest::SHA1 is too old, and needs to be updated to a newer version. The error message 'Can't locate auto/Digest/SHA1/sha1_hex.al in @INC' indicates that the Digest::SHA1::sha1_hex() function was called, but that function could not be found in any modules in the @INC path. (it's an unusual error msg for this situation, not too helpful, caused by the use of Autoloader in Digest::SHA1.) If you're at a loose end, try blowing away the on-disk files for Digest::SHA1 and reinstalling that module from CPAN. - --j.
