I am running Red Hat Linux 6.2 I installed WGet I set up as superuser I ran the CSCMailInstaller.pl file with perl and I got the following messages when it set up (These are the ones that looked like errors/problems) use of uninitialized value at CSCMailInstaller.pl line 583 use of uninitialized value at CSCMailInstaller.pl line 591 use of uninitialized value at CSCMailInstaller.pl line 599 sh: /gnome-perl/GtkXmHTML: no such file or directory sh: /gnome-perl/GtkXmHTML: no such file or directory sh: /gnome-perl/GtkXmHTML: no such file or directory sh: /root/cscmailbuil/HTML-Parser-3.08: no such file or directory sh: /root/cscmailbuil/HTML-Parser-3.08: no such file or directory sh: /root/cscmailbuil/HTML-Parser-3.08: no such file or directory sh: /root/cscmailbuil/URI-1.07: no such file or directory sh: /root/cscmailbuil/URI-1.07: no such file or directory sh: /root/cscmailbuil/URI-1.07: no such file or directory Can anyone help me out here?

I updated the CSCMailInstaller.pl script with the new versions of HTML::Parser and URI::URL a week ago, but I forgot to upload the new version to www.cscmail.net and ftp://cscmail.net I have now done so... Please re-download CSCMailInstaller.pl and re-run it... It should work now... -CZ |

Thanks... that solved the sh: problems, but I'm still getting use of uninitialized value at CSCMailInstaller.pl line 583 use of uninitialized value at CSCMailInstaller.pl line 591 use of uninitialized value at CSCMailInstaller.pl line 599 It looks like these lines are where it makes the Makefile.pl, the make install, and make install 2... I don't understand why these errors keep occuring... Thanks in advance... Chris -- Krazman, kr...@zo... on 10/10/2000 |

Krazman was overheard mumbling something about this on Tue, 10 Oct 2000 01:02:31 -0400 > Thanks... that solved the sh: problems, but I'm still getting > > use of uninitialized value at CSCMailInstaller.pl line 583 > use of uninitialized value at CSCMailInstaller.pl line 591 > use of uninitialized value at CSCMailInstaller.pl line 599 > It's trying to build GtkXmHTML.... Personally, I recommend you don't use XmHTML as the HTML widget anyway... (One of the nice things about 1.7.9 is we don't require an HTML widget anymore... although we can use one) I am not sure why it's giving you "use of uninitialized value" errors, that is odd... but what I recommend is that you grab cscmail-1.7.x from http://sourceforge.net/projects/cscmail and simply do a "make install" on that... has CSCMailInstaller.pl already gone through and pulled down all the perl modules? Also, CSCMailInstaller.pl doesn't die when it gives the "uninitialized" errors, it should go on through, so what happens after that? Does it attempt to run CSCMail, but then CSCMail dies due to a lack of GtkXmHTML??? Copy/paste the whole darn terminal window to me... from start to finish... when you run CSCMailInstaller.pl Thanks, -CZ |

Fetching Gtk::XmHTML ... Use of uninitialized value at CSCMailInstaller.pl lin 583 sh: /gnome-perl/GtkXmHTML: no such file or directory Use of uninitialized value at CSCMailInstaller.pl lin 591 sh: /gnome-perl/GtkXmHTML: no such file or directory Use of uninitialized value at CSCMailInstaller.pl lin 599 sh: /gnome-perl/GtkXmHTML: no such file or directory Found Date::Manip Found DBI .. .. Found Lingua::ISpell It finds everything else... and then it brings back the prompt [root@cmblk-01 Programs] and that is it... no program launch or anything. - Chris -- Krazman, kr...@zo... on 10/10/2000 |

This is very very odd... Anyway, follow my origional advice... Grab a copy of cscmail-1.7.9 from sourceforge, and "make install" it... CSCMailInstaller.pl was written by an ex-developer of CSCMail, and it sucks anyway... (Re-writing it is one of the many things that needs to be done prior to a 1.8.0 release...) You have all the perl modules needed for CSCMail to run anyway... so just get 1.7.x, make install it, then run it... pretty simple.. .you don't NEED GtkXmHTML for CSCMail to work.. in fact, I don't recommend you use it anymore anyway... Get GtkHTML or CscHTML instead... Or, for the quick and easy, just let it use GtkText which it will do if it can't find an HTML widget ... (1.7.x will that is.. 1.6.1 isn't that smart) -CZ |

Okay - I installed the 1.7.8 version from sourceforge... all seemed ok... (program loaded) I started CSV I set up 2 pop3 accounts I have... and I tried to send a message from one to the other... When I pressed send... the whole program shutdown. ???? - Chris -- Krazman, kr...@zo... on 10/10/2000 |

also... When I try to receive mail... the % bar comes up and shows an item... but then nothing shows up in the inbox, and cscget.running file just sits there, and nothing happens, and I can't 'get' again, because an error is generated regarding the cscget.running file... any ideas on that? - Chris -- Krazman, kr...@zo... on 10/10/2000 |

Actually I think I have it all fixed now... (The send and receive problem was based on the date::manip error you have listed in the FAQ... I just read that and fixed it appropriately...) I wanted to thank you for your time and patience... as a new linux user, I really liked the look of the program and wanted to use it on my system, and I appreciate you working with me to get it up and running... I also wanted to know the best way to setup and HTML widget so I can view the help files, in order to take advantage of some of the program features (like importing and what not)...
