Hello all, a number of users have recently reported problems with Radiator on RH8 with Perl 5.8, where LANG is set to a UTF8 character set. This can cause perl to exit with an error message like:
Wide character in Socket::inet_ntoa This is due to new UTF8 character handling in perl 5.8, including some curious new default behaviour involving sockets. Previously we suggested setting the LANG environment variable to en_US, or some other non-UTF8 set. We have now released some patches that should resolve the problem, independent of the setting of LANG. See http://www.open.com.au/radiator/downloads/patches-3.3.1/ We invite people who need UTF8 to try the latest patches and report their results to me.
