That's my problem, I am Johnny1, and I am then admin. An admin with very little experience in this field. Who set this server up with that name, Johnny1.
 
So while I can create users, and make directories have passwords, etc. etc. it seems when I created Sally1, that user didn't have everything needed. Even though I made Sally1 part of www-data, added her to the sudo group, etc. etc.
 
I even tried making all the paths that the perl scripts would write to owned by Sally1, etc. etc.
 
And even with all that, when I set the enviers file so that Perl scripts are run by Sally1, those scripts the need to write to specific paths, fail at that line, even when Sally1 is listen as the owner.
