Hello jc_perlfan, and welcome to the Monastery!

I have no experience with the Bloomberg API, so the following is just a suggestion. I see in the README file that:

This module requires these other modules and libraries:

- Bloomberg C++ SDK version 3.4.2 or later
(location determined by environment variable BLPAPI_ROOT)

I assume the “C++ SDK” referred to here is the blpapi_cpp_3.8.18.1-windows.zip file on the API Libraries download page. So, have you installed the C++ SDK and set BLPAPI_ROOT accordingly?

Hope that helps,
