#40 CTI Comet USB Caller ID xdmf2ncid

[Anonymous]

Hi
I've been using NCID on a Raspberry Pi without issue for a while now.
I've recently got my hands on a CTI Comet USB Caller ID device.

So I took the opportunity to upgade th application software etc.

The device is now plugged in and I'm trying to run xdmf2ncid --test, but keep getting the following error

Can't locate Device/SerialPort.pm in @INC (you may need to install the Device::SerialPort module) (@INC contains: /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/perl/5.24.1 /usr/local/share/perl/5.24.1 /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/perl5/5.24 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/perl/5.24 /usr/share/perl/5.24 /usr/local/lib/site_perl /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/perl-base) at /usr/bin/xdmf2ncid line 27.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/bin/xdmf2ncid line 27.

Any thoughts or help please?

Hi Anonymous,

You should be able to fix by installing the missing Perl module:

 cpan install Device::SerialPort

And re-try the test.

You should also be able to install the missing perl module on the rPi with

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libdevice-serialport-perl
