Modules which are unavailable from a Linux distro's standard repos, and are required by the unstable version of LON-CAPA, but are not required for the current production version, are made available in the LON-CAPA testing repos at: install.loncapa.org/msu/testing/  

There is a PKCS10-2.001-1.0.centos7.lc.noarch.rpm package available there for CentOS 7, which would work, but you might also wait until Monday (5/27), by which time testing repos for all distros (including redhat/7Server/) should have been updated to LONCAPA-prerequisites 1.32 (needed for the latest loncapa-unstable daily build).

See an older post of mine to the lon-capa-dev list for details:
mail.lon-capa.org/pipermail/lon-capa-dev/2016-August/002063.html

The lon-capa-admin mailing list is intended for questions about installation and administration of LON-CAPA production releases.

Please post to the lon-capa-dev list if you have questions about installation of packages needed to support bleeding edge (i.e., loncapa-unstable) in a development environment --
mail.lon-capa.org/mailman/listinfo/lon-capa-dev

Thank you

Subject: [LON-CAPA-admin] Can't locate Crypt/PKCS10.pm Error Starting   LON-CAPA

I am attempting to install the latest unstable version of LON-CAPA from here:

install.loncapa.org/versions/loncapa-unstable.tar.gz

After running make install when I try to start LON-CAPA I get the following error:

service loncontrol start
Can't locate Crypt/PKCS10.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /home/httpd/lib/perl/ /home/httpd/perl/lib /usr/local/lib64/perl5 /usr/local/share/perl5 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 .) at /home/httpd/lib/perl//LONCAPA/Lond.pm line 41.

Looking at Lond.pm I see that it is looking for the perl module:

use Crypt::PKCS10;

The OS I am using is rhel7 and I do not find a package for perl-crypt-pkcs10 to install using yum.  Do I need to get this module from CPAN?  Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
