Summary: perl -MCPAN -e shell INSTALL method fails where only
passive FTP is available
Product: Spamassassin
Version: 2.63
Platform: Other
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: Building & Packaging
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
If only passive FTP and not active is available it is not possible to install
spamassassin with the "perl -MCPAN -e shell" method described in INSTALL file.
An error message by wget "Invalid PORT address" will result.
It is necessary to create a ~/.wgetrc file containing one line
passive_ftp = on
Suggested fix:
Prepend an information into the INSTALL file before the perl -MCPAN -e shell
code
reading "Check active FTP works on your network. If only passive FTP works (for
example some NATs cause this), ensure you have a ~/.wgetrc file and the line
passive_ftp = on
is included in this file. If not, add this line manually".
