When Crypt::DES is dynamically loaded on the webdev mod_perl server it fails to encrypt properly. If it's loaded statically in startup.pl then all seems fine. (as tested on my local web server..) Smooge, could you: 1) Add the perl-Crypt-DES-1.01-1.rpm to the app servers 2) Update the app conf file startup.pl to version 1.4 (I've committed it to CVS) 3) Restart the app servers.. Thanks.
I am going to get the RPM. Do you want this on webdev (first line of ticket) or on the app servers? Sorry.. a bit confused.
This problem is actually caused by loading the mod_ssl module into the apache server. Seems like a namespace collision on the DES functions.... Anyway, this should now be resolved on all boxes.. thanks.
