[error] Undefined subroutine &HTML::Parser...

[Hĺvard Skrřdahl]

Excited, having installed MetaDot 3.1.3, running the script index.pl works fine.

Trying to reach MetaDot through the browser, I get:

Subroutine url redefined at Channel.pm line 585.
Subroutine html redefined at Channel.pm line 592.

[Fri Feb 22 15:14:37 2002] [error] Undefined subroutine &HTML::Parser called at Portal.pm line 4245.

Bummer!

Has anyone seen this?
What can I do?

[Hĺvard Skrřdahl]

The errors are from Apache's error log...

I added a lot of extra Perl-modules (after running some of the test-scripts), that weren't mentioned in the install doc...

I added the hostname in metadot.conf.

Now I get a lot of errors (in my browser) concerning Gizmo.

(perhaps you forgot to load "Gizmo"?)

I think I saw some postings about Gizmo, loading, compiling...

I just have to look-see.

Here are more errors from my error_log.
The last line shows up every time, but the others come and go in no recognizable pattern.

I finally found out where to get MetaDot 4.0b.
It's installed, and works VERY WELL.

Sorry to be clogging up your forums...

it is not a major bug ...
somehow somewhere i got the same in v3.1.3 on suse 7.3
in portal.pm just insert a new line like:

use HTML::Parser in the beginning where all the includes are written
and the problem is gone :)

enjoy
