Ok, I got it working after I moved the Date folder into the 5.8.7 folder. 
Anyone have any ideas on how to get this working with an SSL encrypted 
connection?

The odd thing is that I do get a proper return for Date::Manip. It would
seem this script doesn't see it for some reason, though I believe it's in
the default location. All the other required modules are also installed and
the imaptab file is formatted properly. Anyway let me know if you need any
further information.

Thanks,

Check that you have the Date::Manip perl module installed.
This message indicated that perl can't find it in the paths shown.

If the module is installed correctly, then the command:

perldoc Date::Manip

will return its manual page.

Whoops, I corrected that to point to perl properly though now I recieve

Any suggestions on how to correct this?

Sometimes you get that message when the perl script can't find perl.
Maybe you should check the first line of the script?

Another reason (just guessing) is that the Hobbit user cannot read
the script...

Subject: [hobbit] External Script installation

I am trying to setup bb-imap.pl from
http://www.deadcat.net/viewfile.php?fileid=513. So far I've installed
each of the required perl modules and placed the BigBrother.pm
(Already adjusted bb-imap.pl to point to it) and bb-imap.pl files
within the EXT folder. I also added the following to
hobbitlaunch.cfg:

[bbimap]
	ENVFILE /home/hobbit/server/etc/bb-imaptab
	NEEDS hobbitd
	CMD $BBHOME/ext/bb-imap.pl
	LOGFILE $BBSERVERLOGS/bb-imap.log
	INTERVAL 5m

When I try to run this test nothing happens within hobbit. If I check
the bb-imap.log the only statement it contains is:

2006-03-29 11:33:21 Could not start task bbimap using command
'/home/hobbit/server/ext/bb-imap.pl': No such file or directory

I'm confused about this because the file does exist at that location.
I also changed $test to bbimap from imap2. I'm going to guess I'm
missing some installation step on this thing. If someone could point
out what I'm not doing right and give me a the correct steps to get
this working it would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks Again,
