Hi, Pank. I spent a lot of time looking at Arch Linux, but I've moved elsewhere. I'm not very skilled in the compiling and building of software packages. Of course, I don't have to with Arch (but knowing how to helps). I was able to install squeezeboxserver from the AUR using yaourt. I want to re

Thanks for the link, aubuti. I had forgotten about that URL. The .rpm link posted earlier by Ron (Vortexbox site) works with my Fuduntu rig. (Fedora core 14 based distro.) Thanks, Ron! In reference to pablolie's comment, I also recommend Ubuntu (or an Ubuntu derivative such as Mint Linux) to som

My Squeezebox servers have been down for a week because of this most recent problem and I get the very definite impression that no one really understands what's wrong (I certainly don't). Perl is fine for its original purpose of running quickie, one-off scripts on text and system log files. That's

Thank you, Ron and Pank. My Fuduntu setup has Perl 5.12.3. I'll install the 7.5.5 download Ron suggests. I'm leery of installing Vortexbox itself, but hopefully that download contains just the SBS portion. Again, thanks. I'm curious about the version numbers. I'm probably missing something. Or

Please check whether you are using Perl 5.14. Squeezebox does not work with Perl 5.14. I have had to hold Perl updates on my Archlinux box for some time now. It is mildly annoying to say the least. -- Pank Pank's Profile:

If you want a working SBS 7.5.5 rpm for Fedora 14, try the VortexBox rpm: http://yum.vortexbox.org/releases/14/i386/RPMS/squeezeboxserver-7.5.5-1.fc14.noarch.rpm Andrew Gillis rebuilt this rpm with working CPAN libraries. It's designed for use on VortexBox, but it should work on other Fedora 14

I accepted the package update on both of my Linux servers, and squeezeboxserver stopped working on both. The logs showed only that the wrapper was continually restarting the daemon, so I invoked it manually and got this very cryptic message. What should I make of it? I'm not a perl hacker, I just w
