Codestriker: collaborative code reviewer

Hi All,

I tried installing codestriker on Linux System, but it is throwing error 
while running install.pl. Below is the error I'm getting. I tried 
codestriker 1.9.9 and 1.9.10, but on both versions I'm getting the error 
shown below. I downloaded codestriker  [both versions]from the link 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/codestriker/files/codestriker/1.9.10/
and followed the instruction from 
http://codestriker.sourceforge.net/c49.html.

[root@... bin]# ./install.pl
String found where operator expected at 
/opt/codestriker/codestriker-1.9.9/lib/Codestriker.pm line 563, near 
"croak "Failed to execute $system_line: $!\n""

Could you please help me in fixing this issue.

Hi Neeta,

Thank you for your response.

Could you please let me know the exact module name of Carp package to be

Have you got the Carp package installed on your server?

Hi Jain,

For some reason with Perl 5.12, they decided to change the default
list of installed modules, which is why this has broken.  Codestriker
was developed under Perl 5.8 and 5.10.

The easiest fix for now is to edit the Codestriker.pm file line 563
and change "croak" to "die".  Other occurrences of "croak" should be
replaced with "die".

Cheers,
David
