What is the way to tell wrappers that PERL5LIB should include ~/bin directories?
Having this in the wiki.setup doesn't help anymore:
# environment variables
ENV => {
PATH => '/home/user/bin/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/games:/home/user/ikiwiki/usr/bin/:/home/user/ikiwiki/usr/sbin/:/home/user/bin/bin/:~/bin/bin/',
PERL5LIB => '/home/user/bin/share/perl/5.10.0:/home/user/bin/lib/perl/5.10.0'
},
Or at least I get CGI errors and running ikiwiki.cgi manually fails too:
Use of uninitialized value $tainted in pattern match (m//) at /usr/share/perl5/IkiWiki.pm line 233.
Argument "" isn't numeric in umask at /usr/share/perl5/IkiWiki.pm line 139.
Undefined subroutine &IkiWiki::cgierror called at /home/user/bin/bin/ikiwiki line 199.
Server has an older ikiwiki installed but I'd like to use a newer version from git, and I don't have root access.
You can't set PERL5LIB in ENV in a setup file, because ikiwiki is already
running before it reads that, and so it has little effect. Your error
messages do look like a new bin/ikiwiki is using an old version of
IkiWiki.pm.
The thing to do is set INSTALL_BASE when you're installing ikiwiki from
source. Like so:
cd ikiwiki
perl Makefile.PL INSTALL_BASE=$HOME PREFIX=
make install
Then $HOME/bin/ikiwiki will have hardcoded into it to look
for ikiwiki's perl modules in $HOME/lib/perl5/
(This is documented in the README file by the way.) --[[Joey]]
Ok, perl Makefile.PL INSTALL_BASE=$HOME/bin PREFIX= finally did it for me. I tried too many things with
these paths so I wasn't sure which actually worked. After that I did
$ ikiwiki --setup www.setup --wrappers --rebuild. Somehow in this update mess I seem to have lost the user
accounts, maybe the --rebuild was too much.
