Missing Module from @INC

swamprat · 06-19-2017, 12:07 PM

Greetings,

Can anyone help me with resolving the error below.

I need this fixed before I can run Clamtk in CentOS 7. (KDE or Shell)

I've tried just about everything I know of with my limited knowledge of linux. Already downloaded CPAN and tried to do an install of this but it doesn't know anything about JSON.pm

Can't locate JSON.pm in @INC (@INC contains:

Thanks

Checking my RHEL7 system I see there is an RPM containing JSON.pm:

perl-JSON-2.59-2.el7.noarch

Since CentOS is a binary compile of RHEL source that same package should be available by running yum on your CentOS:

Code:

yum install perl-JSON

You may need to update your cache first as sometimes older cache won't list newer packages.

Code:

yum makecache fast

Also you might want to verify the perl you're running is the one you think you are. Default on RHEL7 is Perl 5.16. Earlier RHEL/CentOS had earlier upstream Perl Versions (5.8.8 on RHEL5, 5.10 on RHEL6). Some apps install their own copies of Perl or other tools that might not be compatible with the default system versions so you have to update those versions instead.

From this link is the suggestion:

Quote:

perl -MCPAN -e 'install JSON' using the path to the one you're using in your script. (Or change your script to point to the other binary)

Try putting this at the beginning of your code:

Code:

BEGIN {
     push (@INC, "/directory/where/JSON.pm/is");
}

Why did you open a new thread?
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...-a-4175608108/
Did you install that package?

First, thanks all for responding to the indicated issue.

I will try the relevant suggestions and get back with the results.

Second, Laserberk, This is an installed app (Clamtk) that I’m trying to get working, I’m not writing anything but thanks for the suggestion.

Third, Pan64, Posted the question here because there weren’t any relevant responses where the original post was made and needed more exposure to my question. And yes I installed the app from a downloaded RPM.

Thanks all.

You told in your other thread that package is already installed. So what is the goal to repeat that question in a new thread?

Actually, the preferred method is use lib ... refer to the hyperlinked perldoc page for details.

However, it is likely that the actual root cause is that something is missing or not-installed, as other posters have suggested. As with other languages, many distros package various components separately. You should not have to specify the library path manually. You can expect the JSON module to be loaded into one of the default paths, if it has been installed at all.

When perl does major update, it commonly it breaks clamtk. As others mentioned, install the packages either via your package manager (preferred) or if not available thru it install the modules via

Code:

sudo perl -MCPAN -e 'install MODULE::Of::Interest'

whereas "MODULE::Of::Interest" is not a real module, replace it with the module that is missing and MCPAN will install it. Launching Clamtk from terminal will tell you what modules are missing. Install, try again and do the next module if more are missing, until it launches normal in the end.
Clamtk has these dependencies: clamav, cron (fcron , fcron , cronie , cronie), desktop-file-utils, gnome-icon-theme, gtk2-perl, perl, perl-http-message, perl-json, perl-libwww, perl-locale-gettext, perl-lwp-protocol-https, perl-text-csv, python, zenity

Thank you everyone for staying with me on this problem.

After following the instructions for updating Perl I'm now getting the message below:

[root@localhost Downloads]# clamtk
Icon 'gtk-new' not present in theme at /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/ClamTk/GUI.pm line 282.
[root@localhost Downloads]#

Any help with the above will be appreciated.

Thanks

If Oxygen updated recently you might have to edit the icon.theme file in /usr/share/icons/oxygen

Code:

# nano index.theme

edit the Inherits= line by adding "gnome" to it, no quotes and doesn't matter the order

Code:

Inherits=Adwaita,gnome,hicolor

every time Oxygen updates, I have to do it.
then run

Code:

# gtk-update-icon-cache

also clamtk should run as normal user, unnecessary to run as root
