[SOLVED] 16.7.8 update broke lightsquid

[tillsense]

nginx 500 internal server error on /ligtsquid/index.cgi

i see that all files in lightsquid directory become the update date and system log tell lightsquid-1.8_4 reinstall ok

Ok,

the Module p5-CGI is needed for the lightsquid web interface. Should be configured as a dependency at lightsquid?

(e.g. amd64 / 17.1 )

Code Select Expand

pkg add -f http://pkg.freebsd.org/freebsd:11:x86:64/latest/All/p5-CGI.pm-3.63_1,1.txz

Uh, this is a fun one:

http://perlhacks.com/2015/12/long-death-cgi-pm/

16.7.7 used Perl 5.20, 16.7.8 updated to 5.24 removing CGI in the process.

I'm not sure what the FreeBSD practice is here, lightsquid in FreeBSD has the same issue, but never received a runtime fix since.

This seems like the proper way, I will push it upstream:
