| package Net::DNS; | # $Id: DNS.pm,v 1.48 2002/11/18 04:22:31 ctriv Exp $ That indicates Net::DNS version 0.31. In that version, Net::DNS::RR:: TXT did not feature the char_str_list() method yet, which is required by Mail::SPF::Query. However, M:S:Q 1.996 and later do formally require Net::DNS 0.46 through their Makefile.PLs, so I'm not sure how you managed to install M:S:Q 1.996 when only Net::DNS 0.31 was installed. So this issue should be resolved as of M:S:Q 1.996.

That's odd. You seem to have Net::DNS installed both as version 0.57 and 0.31, the latter of which would be too old, but your Perl prefers the 0.57 install, so the error should NOT occur. When you say "Still happens even with the latest Net::DNS", can you please give me the full error message that "still happens"?

Wherever SA logs to. Most likely the same where the error message you reported is being logged. Is there reason to believe otherwise?

The print statements do not appear in /var/log/maillog (which is where the other messages come from). That's not surprising since /var/log/maillog is where syslog calls go, not STDERR.

I seriously doubt that Net::DNS logs to syslog. However I'm not a SpamAssassin expert, so I don't understand why Net::DNS logging via Carp::carp() goes to syslog while printing to STDERR doesn't. Perhaps my test isn't correctly detecting the failure case. Please change the inserted lines to: print(STDERR "DEBUG: Net::DNS::char_str_list() called. Net::DNS version = ", Net::DNS->VERSION, ". ", "\$answer = '$answer'\n" ); It then should always generate a "DEBUG: ..." line. Of course only those that are generated immediately after the Net::DNS warning are relevant.

Ahah, that wasn't clear from your message, I assumed you wanted to change the body of the "then" clause since there was no mention of the "if" line. If removed: my @char_str_list = $answer->$method(); print(STDERR "DEBUG: Net::DNS::char_str_list() called. Net::DNS version = ", Net::DNS->VERSION, ". ", "\$answer = '$answer'\n" ); # print "rr_method returning join of @char_str_list\n"; -Nigel

As, I'm sure, you are aware, this does not include the debug messages generated by the modified M:S:Q. You have to understand that I don't know your mail setup, and I know little about SpamAssassin in general nor the way you have configured it in particular. Please find out where STDERR is being logged to by the SpamAssassin process (are you using spamd and have you actually restarted it after modifying M:S:Q?).

There is nothing non standard, it's all as per the Red Hat Spamassassin RPM, updated from the CPAN shell. I have changed nothing else.

That's all very fine. But please read what I wrote. I know little about SpamAssassin. And for what it's worth, I know even less about Red Hat. So please try and answer the my questions, or I won't be able to research this issue. :-(

I don't know how to answer your questions, because you imply that I have knowledge or have changed something where I haven't! I have just installed the software, got the error message, googled for it and noticed the claim that it was now fixed and thought you should be told that it isn't. I have done all you've asked of me, if you want any more help please let me know, but you don't seem to be able to state clearly what you want me to find out for you!

Does the problem still occur? If so, I'll repeat my questions in the hope that you can follow them: Please find out where STDERR is being logged to by the SpamAssassin process. Are you using spamd and have you actually restarted it after modifying M:S:Q?

I interpret the lack of response as an indication that the problem doesn't occur anymore with current releases. Closing.
