frutsel has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Dear Monks,

Does anybody know anything about KWIKI 2.(http://www.kwiki.org/). I have tried to install it, but when I run the command to install the wiki, "wiki -new" it throws the following error message:

Undefined subroutine &Scalar::Util::weaken called at (eval 27) line 4.

I think that some CPAN module is missing, but I can't find the module on CPAN. Does anybody know a solution for this problem. Does anybody else have experience with kwiki 2?

    There are several operating systems where Scalar::Util was not getting installed correctly to. You appear to have one of them. Please install an up to date Scalar::Util from CPAN, using a "force install" if needed.


    Test your modules with bleadperl!

      rsync -avz rsync://public.activestate.com/perl-current/ .
  ./Configure -des -Dusedevel -Dprefix=/path/to/test/perl
  make test
  make install

    Now, please test you modules! If you have test failures that don't happen with Perl 5.8.8, send a simplified test case to

    I have no experience with kwiki 2, do you have Scalar::Util installed?

    What version of Perl are you running? What's the output of perl -V ?
