Changes for version 0.021

  • Adaptor::* objects can now only be initialized online (failures were occuring when Adaptor defaults were out-of-sync with those originating from the CGI.
  • Added code for monitoring a MOD installation: Monitor.pm, acedb.pm, mysql.pm, httpd.pm, etc
  • Added Email.pm for more sophistacated notifications. Can be used for monitoring, updates, etc for more sophisticated or conditional reporting than just relying on STDOUT from cron.
  • Update.pm - added method that checks for sufficient disk space for installs
  • No longer croaks when trying to download a file that has already been downloaded
  • Fixed output formatting
  • Fixed problem in reading installation date of local database
  • Overhauled Makefile.PL - now installs scripts and CGIs if requested
