Well, it also fails if earlier dirs in the path have no x mode.

But if /home/charrison/bin is correct this isn't a likely reason...

    Also, require '/home/charrison/bin/IPC.pm'; succeeds, which indicates to me it probably isn't related to permissions....

      It's possible to create very pathological situations with permissions.

      If I were you I'd try mkdir new dirs and copy IPC.pm there (and another tst.pm with just "1") and try to set INC accordingly.

      Maybe you can isolate the problem.

      BTW: manually perl -I/home/charrison/bin -MIPC -e'1' fails, too?

      HTH

        it is very important to quote the '1' because your shell might interpolate 1 into 11 :P
