Hello,
FYI. I fixed my problem.
I have just installed MHonArch 2.0.2 and tried to convert a mail file
and got an error called:
"Bad Free() ignored" from perl.
I am using the following:
Perl 5
Solaris 2.6 (UNIX)
Mail file from Netscape Communicator 4.0 local directory
readable with mail and Sun Mailer (standard UNIX mail file format)
Listing of command:
lingcod:/home/wade/nsmail>mhonarc -outdir
/home/wade/public_html/dodge/list/979 twlist978

Segmentation Fault(coredump)
Checking for the correct Perl...
From the top of the installed mhonarch:
#!/usr/local/bin/perl
And the perl location and version:
lingcod:/home/wade/nsmail>/usr/local/bin/perl -version
This is perl, version 5.001
Unofficial patchlevel 1m.
Uh oh... unofficial!
I remember now, I upgraded my solaris to version 2.6 since the last time
Perl was installed and I have been using the perl on the webserver which
is version 5.004!
Time to update my local Perl...
Ok, check new version:
perl -version
This is perl, version 5.004
Yes!
Try it again.
lingcod:/home/wade/nsmail>mhonarc -outdir
/home/wade/public_html/dodge/list/9710 twlist978

bin????n.bin instead of filename.jpg.
