[smokeping-users] Problem smokeping.cgi, line 3: table syntax error

[Ian Fraser]

When accessing http://<hostname>/cgi-bin/smokeping.cgi Apache returns
the following error

ERROR: /var/www/cgi-bin/smokeping.cgi, line 3: table syntax error

Smokeping.cgi is located in the Apache cgi-bin directory. Httpd.conf has
this Directory configured for Exec CGI.  The only error in the httpd
logs is the one displayed to the user above....

Apache User is 'apache', and member of apache group.

/var/www/cgi-bin
[root at home cgi-bin]# ls -la
drwxr-xr-x  2 root apache 4096 Sep  7 14:05 .
drwxr-xr-x  9 root root   4096 Sep  6 15:21 ..
-rwxr-xr-x  1 root apache 2464 Sep  7 14:05 smokeping.cgi [root at home
cgi-bin]#

/usr/bin
[root at home bin]# ls -la | grep speedy

apache 109516 Sep  6 13:08 speedy_backend [root at home bin]#

Smokeping.cgi contains the following:

#!/usr/bin/speedy -w
# -*-perl-*-
use lib qw "/usr/local/rrdtool-1.2.10/lib/perl/5.8.5";  <<-- Presumably
the problem line ## I've also tried use lib qw
(/usr/local/rrdtool-1.2.10/lib/perl/5.8.5);
use lib qw(/usr/local/smokeping/lib/); <<-- will also return the error
if line 3 is commented out/removed use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser);

Is this not the right directory for the RRD Perl module ? Permissions
are sufficient ?
/usr/local/rrdtool-1.2.10/lib/perl/5.8.5
[root at home 5.8.5]# ls -la
drwxr-xr-x  3 root apache 4096 Sep  6 11:48 .
drwxrwxrwx  3 root apache 4096 Sep  2 13:41 ..

-rwxr-xr-x  1 root apache 4512 Jun 17 05:05 RRDp.pm

Is this not the Smokeping "library" directory ?
/usr/local/smokeping/lib
[root at home lib]# ls -la
