Issue creating tickets

I recently began having issues creating tickets with RT. I get the
following errors via our webpage when hitting submit. Please note, the
only changes I made to the site in the past few days is to grant
Everybody the right to Reply or comment to a ticket, and, reboot the
web/database server.

I can respond to tickets that exist, I just cannot add new tickets via
our website or via e-mail. Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Hi David,

I just ran into the same problem, you will need to upgrade your version
of Perl to version 5.8.3 (see top of README file in install dir). This
is assuming you are working with RT 3.2.1.

Michelle

*** Top of README file*****

REQUIRED PACKAGES:

o Perl 5.8.3 or later (http://www.perl.com).

       Perl versions prior to 5.8.3 contain bugs that could result
       in data corruption. We recommend strongly that you use 5.8.3
       or newer. RT may function with perl 5.8.0 and later, but
       is unsupported in that configuration.
