[LON-CAPA-admin] New LON-CAPA Installations

[Matthew Brian Hall]

Greetings.

Well, there's nothing like two conferences to help flush out the bugs in the
system.  For those who have done the new LON-CAPA installation, a needed
perl module was not included.  To get the module and install it on your
system, log in as root and execute the following commands:

wget \
http://install.loncapa.org/versions/rh73install/\
perl-suidperl-5.6.1-34.99.6.i386.rpm
rpm -Uvh perl-suidperl-5.6.1-34.99.6.i386.rpm

The bug caused 'filesystem' authenticed accounts to not actually be
generated.  A further bug kept us from detecting this immediately :(
If you have created any filesystem authenticated accounts since
installing on Red Hat 7.3, they must be fixed.  Please email me directly
for information on this.

Anyone who did a Red Hat 7.3 install after June 7th does not have this
problem.

Matthew
