    I get this error every 5 minutes in my emails from an mrtg cron.

    Subroutine SNMPv1_Session::AF_INET6 redefined at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/Exporter.pm line 65.
    at /usr/bin/../lib/mrtg2/SNMP_Session.pm line 594 Subroutine main::AF_INET6 redefined at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/Exporter.pm line 65.
    at /usr/bin/mrtg line 97


    Does anyone have a fix for it?

    Do I need to reinstall mrtg ? If so, how to do it in cPanel.

    Thanks

    Fised it myself - I THINK

    Let's start by installing the newest version of CPAN, so we're not
    working with outdated code.

    # perl -MCPAN -e shell
    install Bundle::CPAN

    After install

    cpan> reload cpan
    (CPAN__unchanged__v1.9205)(CPAN::Debug__unchanged__v5.402212)(CPAN::HandleConfig__unchanged__v5.402212)(CPAN::Queue__unchanged__v5.402212)(CPAN::Tarzip__unchanged__v5.402213)(CPAN::Version__unchanged__v5.5)
    0 subroutines redefined

    cpan> install Socket6
    ....... Stuff here removed ........
    Running make install
    Prepending /home/.cpan/build/Socket6-0.22-jeYjPG/blib/arch /home/.cpan/build/Socket6-0.22-jeYjPG/blib/lib to PERL5LIB for 'install'
    Files found in blib/arch: installing files in blib/lib into architecture dependent library tree

    Writing /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto/Socket6/.packlist
    Appending installation info to /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/i386-linux-thread-multi/perllocal.pod
    UMEMOTO/Socket6-0.22.tar.gz
    /usr/bin/make install UNINST=1 -- OK

    cpan> install IO::Socket::INET6
    IO::Socket::INET6 is up to date (2.55).

    tested cron:
    mrtg root LANG=C LC_ALL=C /usr/bin/mrtg /etc/mrtg/mrtg.cfg --lock-file /var/lock/mrtg/mrtg_l --confcache-file /var/lib/mr
    tg/mrtg.ok

    returned:
    ERROR: Mrtg will most likely not work properly when the environment
    variable LANG is set to UTF-8. Please run mrtg in an environment
    where this is not the case.

    Changed Cron to:
    env LANG=C /usr/bin/mrtg /etc/mrtg/mrtg.cfg --lock-file /var/lock/mrtg/mrtg_l --confcache-file /var/lib/mrtg/mrtg.ok

    Working I think .. got no errors so far

    Hi, I've got the same problem :( (After upading assp deluxe)

    I've gone though and copied as per your instructions, all ok - till the cron point. I'm logged in as route which CRON file did you change? Crontab -l doesn't show any mrtg that runs on a 5min basis?

    Here is how I fixed it after much head banging

    #BEGIN {
    # if($SNMP_Session::ipv6available) {
    # import IO::Socket::INET6;
    # import Socket6;
    # }
    #}


    I commented the stuff out above on line 594 in file /usr/bin/../lib/mrtg2/SNMP_Session.pm file. That fixed it as I am not running IPv6.
