perl execution failed

When trying to install Horde or squirrelmail via the install scripts option on my fresh Debian server I get the following error message:

HTTP/1.0 500 Perl execution failed Server: MiniServ/0.01 Date: Mon, 5 Nov 2007 21:35:52 GMT Content-type: text/html Connection: close
Error - Perl execution failed

Undefined subroutine &php_pear::get_pear_commands called at /usr/share/webmin/virtual-server/scripts-lib.pl line 764.

This happened after updating Pear to the required version (1.6.1).
Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Hey Kevin,

Looka likea bug.

Try 3.37. If it persists, file a bug and Jamie will get it fixed quick like.

That update fixed it…must have just came out as I just installed the latest yesterday…but that fixed it…THANKS!

Fixed it. Don’t know if it had something to do with it but it seems that installing Webmin module PHP-Pear-modules(v1.2) found in the repository did the trick…(?) Apparently my webmin was running version PHP-Pear-modules(v1.0)

I’m not sure when this began, but I can not upgrade Horde.
It seems my pear is f***ed up, and I have no clue how to fix it.
