    Trying to change Perl version - Perl 5.10.0 is not supported

    Hi All

    I have not been able to upload my site to a new Virtual Server from EasySpace. the site partly uploads but seems to have script issues.

    I think the problem might be to do with the Perl version as in the Installation Guide it says:

    "Perl 5.004 or later (MD5 Perl module recommended; Perl 5.10.0 is not supported)"

    In a shell, perl -v reports the installed version as being 5.10.1. This is not good as I guess it is not compatible with SellerDeck.

    So I have installed perlbrew and perl version 5.12.5 on the virtual server.

    I used perlbrew switch 5.12.5 to change to the newly installed version and in a shell, perl -v reports the installed version as being 5.12.5 - which is great.

    But, if I run perl -v from a cgi-bin script

    http://legerereeds.co.uk/cgi-bin/version.pl

    it still gives the old system perl, version 5.10.1, and not the perl version I get from the shell command. The server has been restarted.

    Any ideas where I am going wrong?

    Thanks
    Lee
