[Kolab-devel] [issue1879] kolabconf poor error message in buildCyrusConfig

[Peter Eisentraut]

New submission from Peter Eisentraut <peter_e at gmx.net>:

In perl-kolab-5.8.7-20070420, file Kolab-Conf/Conf.pm.in, the function 
buildCyrusConfig does

    my $keytemplate = "$templatedir/cyrus.conf.template";
    my $cfg = $templates{$keytemplate};

but %templates is not defined (it's commented out earlier in the file).  Later 
it does:

    if (!($cyrustemplate = IO::File->new($keytemplate, 'r'))) {
      Kolab::log('T', "Unable to open configuration file `$cfg'", 
KOLAB_ERROR);
      exit(1);
    }

First of all, the error message should write $keytemplate, and second it would 
be nice to give a reason for the error, probably found in $!.
