Hi, everyone. I got a problem with Perl when I was trying to install Yahoo Zimbra. The errror message is: '/usr/bin/perl: symbol lookup error: /opt/zimbra/zimbramon/lib/i586-linux-thread-multi/auto/IO/IO.so: undefined symbol: Perl_Tstack_sp_ptr'. I am using FC 10. I checked perl verion and found it is of 5.10.0. I searched the web and found other people got similar problems. I tried to down grade perl to 5.8. Anyone know how to fix this problem, or how to downgrade perl to 5.8? Thank you very much. David

Hi, everyone.
I got a problem with Perl when I was trying to install Yahoo Zimbra. The errror message is: '/usr/bin/perl: symbol lookup error: /opt/zimbra/zimbramon/lib/i586-linux-thread-multi/auto/IO/IO.so: undefined symbol: Perl_Tstack_sp_ptr'.
I am using FC 10.
I am guessing, but it looks like your Yahoo Zimbra came with its own Perl interpreter. It's probably installed in /opt/zimbra/bin/perl[*], again guessing from the error message you quote.
The message is coming from the Perl interpreter installed in /usr/bin/perl (Fedora's Perl), but it references a core Perl module (IO.pm) that is installed in the /opt/zimbra hierarchy. I'm not sure how that is happening, but it could be use statements in the executed script or PERL5LIB environment variable, or ...
I guess the fix is to execute the Perl interpreter shipped with Yahoo Zimbra instead of the Fedora Perl interpreter.
Try typing the command
/opt/zimbra/bin/perl name-of-script-causing-error
If Yahoo Zimbra does not ship its own Perl, then you will have to build it yourself from source. Check CPAN or http://www.perl.org/ to get the source.
Good luck.
