Spamassassin upgrade isn't working - part 2

[bstreet]

Hello,

I have read the posts about upgrading to V2.63. I started to follow the upgrade procedure from Jalal and couldn't get past the cpan install bundle procedure. Since I have no idea about how to modify my configuration, or if I even need to, I selected NO to that answer and I get stuck in the process where it asks me to "Enter arithmetic or Perl expression" and I don't recall seeing anything about that in the procedure.

When type exit and rerun the install I receive the following output:

So, now I know I don't have gcc installed but does that make a difference in the basic functionality of Version 2.63?

Thanks,
Brian.

Some Perl modules need 'gcc' to install, other modules don't (they are pure Perl).

SpamAssassin doesn't need 'gcc' at all.

Take a look at the section on my site:
http://codeworks.gnomedia.com/westho...-installation/
and near the end of the page is the 3rd means of installing ("Upgrading using a prebuilt package from another Westhost site.").
Try that and see if it works for you.

But, to be honest, you could be little out of your depth and it may be better to find a local unix guru to handle it for you.
There is no black magic involved, I promise!

Thank you Jalal.

I pulled the tarball from your site. I've untarred it and modified the spamassassin path to /sa/bin/spamassassin per your directions.

I'll go look at the docs now for the new version and see how much trouble I can cause myself.

Brian.
