This machine has been running great for a week. Monday morning, postgrey was
stoppedand wouldn't start.

It seems that some PERL path has gone wrong
strace postgrey --inet=10023
.. show a lot of file open failures.
open("/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/mach/Sys/Syslog.pm", O_RDONLY) =
-1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
mx1# find /usr/local -iname "Syslog.pm"
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.2/mach/Sys/Syslog.pm
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.2/mach/Unix/Syslog.pm
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.5/mach/Sys/Syslog.pm
mx1# find /usr/local -iname "FileHandle.pm"
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.2/FileHandle.pm
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.5/FileHandle.pm
For an earlier, similar problem on this machine, we were advised to make this
link,
mx1# ll /usr/bin/perl
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel - 19 Aug 18 06:14 /usr/bin/perl@ ->
/usr/local/bin/perl
Whoever gave you this advice was wrong. A symlink should already exist for
perl:
# ls -lsa /usr/bin/perl
0 lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 24 Feb 20 12:23 /usr/bin/perl ->
/usr/local/bin/perl5.8.8
Note that it doesn't point to /usr/local/bin/perl
How do I tell PERL and PERL apps where to find the stuff?
@INC
Try running the perl-after-upgrade script:
# which perl-after-upgrade
/usr/local/bin/perl-after-upgrade
