G'day james786,

Welcome to the monastery.

It sounds like you could have more than one version of Perl installed. It's /usr/bin/perl that can't find String.pm; do you have another /some/path/to/perl on your system?

Try running: 

which perl

[download]

from the command-line. Does that show /usr/bin/perl or something else?

How did you install String? There's normally some messages indicating where a module's files are being installed to. Do you have a log or history of that? Try using find to locate the path to String.pm.

Try running: 

/usr/bin/perl -e 'use String; print "$String::VERSION\n";'

[download]

from the command-line. Do you get the same messages? Is the output showing the same version you installed? Do you get the same results with these: 

perl -e 'use String; print "$String::VERSION\n";'
/some/path/to/perl -e 'use String; print "$String::VERSION\n";'

[download]

How are you running your web application? Perhaps there's a configuration issue; have you checked this?

Did you undertake any troubleshooting yourself before posting here. If so, what were the results?
