I get the same Error with your code (good point to keep it so simple). My code was:

#!/usr/bin/perl -w
# Display Hello World program
        
use Tk;
use strict;
        
my $mw = MainWindow->new;
$mw->geometry("200x100");
$mw->title("Hello World!!!");
        
$mw->Label(-text => 'Hello World')->pack();
        
$mw->Button(-text => "Close", -command =>sub{exit})->pack();
        
MainLoop;

Tk was installed with ppm so I really thought I was on the safe side... but no. Do I have to install codeX to make it run? I do not think is the case. I also tried a mini script with Tkx (which comes with Activestate already installed) and it works fine. What can I try?
