Re: PERL Problem

Here is a follow-up. In searching for a possible solution, I found a message I had posted here back in February about the same problem. At that time, I was able to back off the MacPorts upgrade and things worked. This time, I changed mail.cgi to point to perl5.16 (the default is perl5.22) and everything started working again. I did find a number of references in my search to this error going from a warning in Perl to an actual error. Here is the full error from the log (I left off part in the previous message; got in a hurry with people breathing down my neck since the daily email didn't go out on time):

\C is deprecated in regex; marked by <-- HERE in m/(\C <-- HERE )/ at /Library/WebServer/Documents/vtnews/DADA/perllib/URI/Escape.pm line 205, <CONFIG> line 1.
Use of uninitialized value $error[0] in join or string at /opt/local/lib/perl5/5.22/Carp.pm line 489, <CONFIG> line 1.

Used MacPorts to do an upgrade to installed programs and it apparently broke Dada Mail. Nothing works and the error log is filled with:

Use of uninitialized value $error in join or string at /opt/local/lib/perl5/5.22/Carp.pm line 489, <CONFIG> line 1. at /Library/WebServer/Documents/vtnews/DADA/App.pm line 12012.

Is there a patch or fix for this? Thanks.
