Re^3: Crypt::CBC, Blowfish and Salt problem

What Sam wrote above sounds like a good hypothesis... Have you tried that?

If all else fails, you might also consider downgrading to pre-2.17 (temporarily, to get operational again) and then work out a way to migrate your old encrypted data to the new style usage/encoding. For that, it's probably a good idea to install the old version into some private location, and then put use lib "/path/to/old/module"; at the top of the script.

You can select from "Other releases" on `search.cpan.org` — e.g. version 2.15 (dunno what happened to 2.16).	[reply] [d/l]

Ok, I downloaded and installed v2.15... I installed it with the instructions: perl Makefile.PL make make test make install and it overwrote my current version... so I guess what I'll do is copy the path to a different location then upgrade it again... then rename it to Crypt2/CBC so I can decrypt everything, then run Crypt::CBC to encrypt it again with the new system... that should work, right? What do you think? Thanks, Richard	[reply]

If you take out the -salt = >1 and add: -header => 'randomiv' it works.	[reply]
