Subject: Argus broken after upgrading perl
Message-ID: <CA+POVi7iTj78STNFHDO2DiZ=8fw-TpFeD2EC4bYOkhAvQ7kc8w@mail.gmail.com>

Hi everybody,

happily running argus for 10+ years to monitor my hosts; however, today,
after running full system upgrade (my system is Arch Linux, and I really
like it), I got the web page of Argus completely unuvailiable with 500
error from server.
It's got clear very soon that CGI.pm has mistically disappeared after the
upgrade; well, I installed it back.
But, alas! - I couldn't get much more than something like "you need to log
in" on the web-interface of Argus that, well, started to say at least
something.
The error from web-server was:

Can't locate object method "startform" via package "CGI" at
/usr/local/argus/lib/web_login.pl line 107

Well. I went into /usr/local/argus/lib/, found 3 files there, containing 4
lines, referencing to "startform", and replaced it by  "start_form". Done.
My brand new version of perl is v5.22.0, and system is Arch Linux, I have
had mentioned before.
You have been warned :)

Cheers,
Tigran Zakoyan.

BTW, the same goes to endform/end_form.
