Perhaps this thread earlier last month can help:
http://www.icdevgroup.org/pipermail/interchange-users/2006-February/044761.h 
tml 

You could try to put back an older Server.pm file and see if things work. 
Peter gave a good hint here to do some trial and error to find where things 
have gone bad .. A lot has been added since 4.6, perhaps you can find some 
lines that are the culprits.
