Syntax error on line 1 near eval:
I am cross posting, but I need to find an answer quick. I finally removed
my rpm installation of Spamassassin and installed via CPAN, which allowed me
to install the SpamCopURI plugin as well. When I run spamassssin --lint, I
get an error on the SpamCopURI.cf
Specifically:
Failed to compile URI SpamAssassin tests, skipping:
(syntax error at /etc/mail/spamassassin/spamcop_uri.cf, rule
SPAMCOP_URI_RBL, line 1, near "eval:"
Any ideas why this might be? I've also had problems with SpamAssassin
itself since installed via CPAN, where I see these errors:
Scalar found where operator expected at (eval 17) line 686, near "} $self"
(Missing operator before $self?)
Failed to run header SpamAssassin tests, skipping some: syntax error at
(eval 17) line 686, near "} $self"
Any guesses there? Perhaps related to the SpamCopURI plugin?

I haven't been following this thread, but you probably want "URI".
That's the only one I know of anyway...

That should be just URI. If using CPAN, "install URI".

Well, there doesn't seem to be a Net::URI either. I did find a
Mail::Message::Field::URIs? Any idea what exactly I need to be installing?

Pardon me, that should be Net::URI

I can't find the Perl::URI to reinstall. I've reinstalled Spamassassin
multiple times trying to fix this. If someone can point me to the name of
URI package that I can reinstall (not called Perl::URI that I can tell) I'll
try that.

Which version of SpamAssassin are you running? SA 3 does not
need SpamCopURI or the eval.

I had the same problem when i installed SpamCopUri for the first time.
Check for linewraps in spamcop_uri.cf. That solved my problem.
