Re^3: Perl 5.8 to 5.16 and HASH error (mod)

Not sure what you mean regarding module version upgrade.

He means, before upgrading perl (from 5.8.8), upgrade the modules in the old perl ( INSTALL_BASE )

That ought to break some things and perl version won't be the reason

After you've fixed it to work with latest modules under 5.8.8, then upgrade to 5.16 to see what else breaks

Hi I am going to go away and check the data. I have had a few comments which suggest a change in the data structure may be involved. In the dark recesses ofmy mind I think there may be some truth in that. What you suggest makes sense but I dont want to mess around with a live system, so if the "data route" is no good I will setup another server and try your theory. Have a good weekend Regards Rob	[reply]
