Security Update 2009-001 (Server Leopard) 'killed' perl

I've just done the update using Software update and just about everything I look at is working, except that perl seems to have gone almost AWOL. I seen it pop up occasionally in the Activity Monitor, but, when I try to run perl scripts from the command line or the cron jobs that ran flawlessly before the update, nothing happens. Period.
Anyone have the same experience and/or any suggestions of how to get out of this problem or cleanly back up to the previous server state (i.e. just before installing the update)?
Thanks.

The update only hoses IO and Time::HiRes on modified systems. The problem should not occur on stock installations.
IO prevents CPAN from working and needs to be installed manually (without CPAN).
Compress::Zlib has already caused problems in the past and depending on one's configuration may need to be installed manually (without CPAN).
To install IO, do the following:
mkdir -p /SourceCache
cd /SourceCache
curl -O http://cpan.mirror.solnet.ch/authors/id/G/GB/GBARR/IO-1.2301.tar.gz
tar xzf IO-1.2301.tar.gz
cd IO-1.2301
perl Makefile.PL
make
make install
Next use CPAN to install Time::HiRes
Finally, if Compress::Zlib cannot be tamed with CPAN, install it manually. Different file, but same procedure as for IO.
HTH,
Alex
P.S. As a rule of thumb, never install an update on a modified system before waiting at least a week to see what issues may crop up. This applies also for stock systems, but in particular for modified systems.

Security Update 2009-001: my powerbook g4 is in a restart loop

When I tried to install the Safari 4 beta browser I got a message that I needed to install Security Update 2009-001 first. I was surprised because I get updated automatically but nonetheless I selected "Software Update" from the Apple menu and got the "new software for your computer message".
I clicked install. After a minutes m powerbook shutdown and started back up. I heard the familiar gong, got the grey screen and progress indicator. Then after 5-6 minutes my powerbook restarted. It then went through this process again and again. After the 8th time I tried powering off, taking out the battery and letting it sit. Same result. Tried starting up in safe mode. The powebook would not boot up in safe mode. I tried connecting it to another computer using firewire ad T at start up to make the powerbook act like a firewire drive. Tried instructions on macfixit to remove plist and kernal files this way. Disconnected, powered down. Same result.
If I cannot get it into safe mode and removing possibility corrupted files does not work, what the heck can I do?
I am going to turn it off, unplug, take out battery and let sit over night and see if it works.
Short of that, I use Time Machine and I am thinking of just formatting the hard drive and backing up from the last Time Machine back up (before the update).
Any better ideas?
Thanks

Mediablogger,
See if you can boot from your Leopard install cd that came with your computer. If you can, you might be able to repair the disk...
After the computer boots from the CD select File>Disk Utility. From there select Repair Disk, and hope for the best...
If Repair Disk finds errors, and then says "Disk not Repaired" just keep running it again until you get a "disk repaired" message (it only fixes one problem per run).
Hope this helps,
Bob

Security Update 2010-001 Client (Leopard)

Where does it show that Security Update 2010-001 Client (Leopard) is installed? I installed this update using <apple>-> Software Update.
It's apparently installed, because <apple>-> Software Update no longer lists it as an update. But <apple>-> About This Mac says I have:
Mac OS X Version 10.5.8.
The Security Update is not mentioned.

"But <apple>-> About This Mac says I have:
Mac OS X Version 10.5.8.
The Security Update is not mentioned."
It won't mention Security Updates. It only gives you the OS version and the build.

Can't install Security Update 2009-001

I was trying to install Safari4 Beta and it wouldn't install stating my volume (hard drive) didn't meet the volume requirements. Then I tried installing Security Update 2009-001 and got the same message. I'm not real computer savvy, what am I doing wrong? Thanks.

Don't know. Boot with your install disk, select your language, select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu, and repair the disk and permissions. Try installing again. If still no go, create a new admin user account, log into it, and try installing. If the problem remains, download and install the 10.5.6 COMBO updater, repair permissions, and restart.

For anyone who has a USB (third party) keyboard: after the security update, the iMac will only recognize it if you follow the screen instructions - press the key to the right of the left Shift key once; after that, the key to the left of the right Shift key (that is the default procedure for Mac OS to recognize plug in keyboards).
So, it doesn't "break" the keyboard, it just needs to be able to recognize it since the firmware settings were most likely reset to factory default. Not sure if this also applies to a wired Apple keyboard, but it definitely applies to third party keyboards, especially if they are plugged in in addition to an Apple bluetooth keyboard, which is the case with my setup.

IMac G5 Stuck While updating to Security Update 2010-001 Client (Leopard)

Pretty much explains everything in the title.
There is a blue screen and my cursor is fading out slowly and then fading in again.
If i power it off and on again it works but the update is not there.
Should i just ignore it?

Did you use Software update or the Apple site? Try the one you didn't use and see if that works.

Will there be a Security Update 2009-006 for Tiger PPC

Apple released Security Update 2009-006 for Leopard today, but not for Tiger.
Is there going to be any more support and updates for Tiger, since Snow Leopard came out?
Thanks

It did that with another page too, but is loading others fine. I am wondering if there is an issue. I may have to downgrade to 3 again, if that is possible.
I got used to using Firefox because I just upgraded from OS X 10.3.9 and had to use Safari 2.x, which doesn't work so well with the web anymore.

PPC Security Update 2009-002

May be of some use to other or could be we just had a bad day.
Installed Security Update 2009-002 (last update was 2008-003) and find that amavisd will not run. Seems that MIME::Base64 is missing which stops amavisd from running. Reinstalled MIME::Base64, and all fine now.
As I say, could be a one off.

Tim,
the Perl issues were present in Security Update 2009-001. Since you did not update to that version, 2009-002 installed those changes as well.
As a rule of thumb, if you skip an update, you always need to go back and read its release notes together with the ones belonging to the current update. Same applies to combo updaters.

Eudora crashing since installing Security Update 2010-001

Eudora has been crashing 100% of the time since I installed Security Update 2010-001 for Leopard.
Is anyone else having this problem? Any suggestions for a resolution?
Thanks.

I see that, like most others, you prefer IMAP. I have used both but I prefer POP. Mixing them on one client can have unfortunate consequences. I don't like any sort of web interface to mail. IMAP is very useful if you need portability but I contend that POP can be more secure if used as I do:
I access each account from time to time from more than one computer. Each computer acts as mail backup for the other as long as I remember to use each within my 122 day (4 month) setting. Since the computers are at different locations I have good protection from fire, disk failure or any other failure of my computers. A corrupt ISP employee can only access my emails for the last 4 months. To easily keep both clients the same I have a simple flat folder structure - one folder for each of the last 10 years.

Did Security Update 2006-001 kill SpamAssassin 3.1.0?

Greetings,
It appears Apple's Mac OS X 10.3 (Panther) Security Update 2006-001 has killed my SA 3.1.0. After the update, upon starting spamd this is what happens:

Has anyone else seen this? I note from the release notes:
perl
CVE-ID: CVE-2005-4217
Available for: Mac OS X v10.3.9, Mac OS X Server v10.3.9
Impact: Perl programs may fail to drop privileges
Description: When a perl program running as root attempts to switch to another user ID, the operation may fail without notification to the program. This may cause a program to continue to run with root privileges, assuming they have been dropped. This can cause security issues in third-party tools. This update addresses the issue by preventing such applications from continuing if the operation fails. This issue does not affect Mac OS X v10.4 or later systems. Credit to Jason Self for reporting this issue.
Any advice would be most appreciated.
Cheers,
Damon
PowerMac G4-867 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

The update prevents spamd to run as the default user "nobody". Running it as root seems to be the only workaround.

Anyone updated system running OS X Server 2.2.2 with Security Update 2014-001 (Mountain Lion)?

Has anyone updated your system running OS X Server 2.2.2 with the Security Update 2014-001 (Mountain Lion)? If you have, may I know if you have any issues?
Also, does anyone know if a Apache HTTP module that was compiled with version HTTP 2.2.24 will work under HTTP 2.2.26 (updated by Security Update 2014-001)? I am asking because the module mod_jk.so is not available in the stock Mountain Lion but only in /Applications/Server.app/Contents/ServerRoot/usr/libexec/apache2/ (inside the OS X Server 2.2.2 app), and I am using the module for my Tomcat installation interface to HTTP server.

Actually, the university I work for is having tons of issues with our Mountain Lion computer (all models) booting and it seems to be tied to this update. After installing this update, the computer starts booting, gets to the grey screen with the Apple logo and then won't go any further and the cursor changes to the spinning color wheel thing. A permissions repair resolves the issue temporarily, but it always seems to come back.

Snow Leopard 10.6.2 Security Update 2010-001

I had a MacBook Pro 15" 2006 , core duo 2GHz 100GB with Snow Leopard working fine, until I a) repaired permissions, b) installed single item "Security Update 2010-001" via Software Update c) restarted when I was told "you need to restart to finish this upgrade", restart later I chose to restart now. The MBP1,1 has blocked at a flashing Apple/'No-Entry/'? folder' grey/gray screen.
I have read http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1892?viewlocale=en_US , I have tried advanced repair techniques, PRAM, safeboot, X etc to as yet no avail.
I urge caution before applying this update on mission critical systems, I have read widely and many people have had no problems with Security Update 2010-001, but some have. I am an experienced Apple user - this is an anomaly, hopefully very rare. any other suggestions rather than total system restore?

.... BUT NO ...
I'm still having the problem, but it's getting better and I'm not blaming the Security Update any longer.
I've been rebooting into Safe Mode (Shift while Switch-on) and investigating Library/Startup Items and User Login Items.
I don't know whether it's 10.6.2 or the Security Update, but one of them seems to have made the machine sensitive to the fact (my fault) that I had various old and presumably not-compatible items in Startup. Also, some of the software/drivers/plugins you find in Preferences (eg my Mouse driver, my pen tablet driver) seemed to be outdated. I've now given my collection of old software a bit of a spring clean, and 2 times out of 3 I can now reboot successfully.
... failing which, reboot in Safe Mode and try again.

After Security Update 2009-002 no connection to server

After running Security update 2009-002 I can not connect to a server, e.g. a webdisk with Apple+K command. Rebooting does not help, nor entering fresh login data.
Does anybody have a clue?
thanks in advance,
Flip

Hello Flip, and a warm welcome to the forums!
One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for action in Safe Mode...
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.
Open Keychain Access in Utilities, use Keychain First Aid under the Window Menu item, then either check the Password under that item, change it, or delete it and start over.
Also remove it from the CMD+k window by highlighting it and clicking the little minus button.
Resetting your keychain in Mac OS X...
If Keychain First Aid finds an issue that it cannot repair, or if you do not know your keychain password, you may need to reset your keychain.
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1544
Reboot, test again.

AFP Connection Problems after Server Security Update 2009-006

After installing the Security Update 2009-006 on the Server, we have Problems to mount Shares from two differnt AFP-Servers on the Client.
The Client and the Server have a binding to AD.
The Client can connect to Server1 via AFP.
But after this, the connection to Server2 shows the Volumen List from Server1!
Same Problem when the first Connection mounts Server2 and then Server1.
I tried the second connect with DNS-Name and IP-Adress.
There is no Problem when i am useing SMB.
Have anyone a Idea or the same Problem?
Thanks
Sven
