SID-01961: Software Error when running configure script

Status:	Answered	TWiki version:	6.0.0	Perl version:	5.18.2

When launching the configure script for the first time (new installation), I am getting the following error message:

Software error:

Can't locate Error.pm in @INC (you may need to install the Error module) (@INC contains: /var/www/twiki/lib . /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/perl/5.18.2 /usr/local/share/perl/5.18.2 /usr/lib/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/perl/5.18 /usr/share/perl/5.18 /usr/local/lib/site_perl) at /var/www/twiki/lib/TWiki/Configure/LANGUAGES.pm line 28, <F> line 1569.

You can see a full screenshot of the message here:

I have checked that the www-data user is the owner of the twiki directory structure. I generated my apache config with the config generator and I've been trying to follow the Install Guide as closely as possible.

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers, Jeff

Hi Peter,

Thanks for the response. Sorry it took me so long to respond, but I was on holiday

I followed the link you posted above, but I don't see where I can download the patch to fix my problem....

Thanks again,

Jeff

Never mind. I modified the files with the 'typos' myself, and it seems to be working now.

Thanks again.
