All these various posts about Scalar::Util on RHEL/CentOS 4/5 have my head absolutely spinning; not sure where to even post this question.
Can anyone tell me if there is anything that can be checked prior to attempting an upgrade to 5.0 which will tell me if it is likely that it will succeed or fail? I am currently running CentOS 4.6, which started out as a 4.3 (or maybe 4.4) system. It is fully updated and I'm not using any 3rd party repos or software, other than Zimbra. I ran the test.pl script that was posted previously in this thread and it did not produce any errors. I have not made any changes to .bashrc or anything like that to change the default paths for Perl.
I have another CentOS 4.6 box where I have done various upgrades and installs of 5.0, starting back with Beta 1 and I've never run into any issues. However, I'm still very wary of upgrading my production server, and despite the warnings I'm not inclined to changes the OS at this time.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
TIA,
John  |
