Webmin / Bugs / #5135 perl error installing on windows 10

John Beaudoin - 2018-06-06

noticed that this was an old version so downloaded 1.881.zip and it installed fine, however when I login into webmin I have a blank screen after the login credentails and in the miniserv.error log I see:

[06/Jun/2018:15:32:09 -0400] miniserv.pl started

I read that as well. I created a test script to see if the if the function worked and it did.
ie:
use Win32;
use Win32::pwent qw(getpwnam getpwent endpwent);

my $uid = getpwnam(getlogin); my $win32login = Win32::LoginName(); while( my @pwent = getpwent ) { if( $pwent[0] eq $win32login and $pwent[2] == $uid ) { print( "It's me \\o/\n" ); endpwent(); last; } }

I guess my concern is that if this is indeed a problem with activeperl, then the developers of webmin need to either remove the installation proceedures for windows, update them or fix the code.

Have a look at the fix. It's very few places where it's really needed by the theme. It should load. Please check it.

You can install it using theme-update.sh script.

Works much better. Thank you. I do see some errors in the log however.

Looks like the theme doesn't handle the case where the OS has no get_memory_info function.

  The latest commit fixed the memory sub routine issue ie: Undefined
  subroutine &proc::get_memory_info called at
  C:/Webmin/authentic-theme/stats.cgi line 32.
  
  But there still is an error the the cpu sub ie: Undefined subroutine
  &proc::get_cpu_io_usage called at C:/Webmin/authentic-theme/stats.cgi line
  33.

Yes, I should have looked more patiently. Sorry. Does the Dashboard loads for you without problems?

  the dashboard opens fine now.
  
  I have been going through the menu picks. network interfaces activated on
  boot does not list any, however they do show up under "active now".
  
  So far the rest of the picks show up fine. Thanks for the work you have
  done so far.

This is very strange that you have Dashboard working as expected, because as I checked, proc/windows-lib.pl only contains one sub, wich is list_processes, so I expected it to fail as well.

Anyway, I made a patch. Please update the theme and try again. I expect all errors to go away.

You are correct that the "running processes" has some issues, but it does not fail. Here is the latest log FYI...

Yes, it's because you haven't saved theme settings yet. It's fixed.
