[solved] Spamd won't start after perl upgrade

Starting spamd via the initscript doesn't work anymore. If I try to run spamd via console I get the following error:

/usr/bin/perl: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/auto/Crypt/OpenSSL/RSA/RSA.so: undefined symbol: Perl_Gthr_key_ptr

Any idea how I can fix this?

Have you tried:

sa-update

It`s necessary before start.

Of course. Still the same error.

Re: [solved] Spamd won't start after perl upgrade

Ok, I solved it. Somehow.

I tested spamd on a different server and there the perl uprade worked without a hitch.

I tried re-installing a bunch of perl deps, but that didn't help either. In the end, I simply deleted the RSA.so file which the original error message complained about.. Since the files in that folder did not seem to belong to any package.

And presto, spamd starts again.
