Hello Monks

I have created a Perl script which runs fine manually with a value parsed during runtime, i.e. like 'perl myscript.pl value'

I need to execute this over a Web Server (IBM HTTP Server), I have configured it correctly and it is able to execute the Hello_World.pl program to display Hello World with a name given as input in the URL. like https://hostname.com/cgi-bin/Hello_World.pl?name=test

But my actual code which calls for a different Perl script from this, does not work.

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use CGI;
use IPC::System::Simple qw(system capture);

#create CGI query object to get the SSO from URL
my $sso = new CGI;
my $sso = $query->param( "sso" );

#*********Script within a script both files in same path**********
system( "perl myscript.pl $sso" );

print "Content-type:text/html\r\n\r\n";
print "<html>";
print "<head>";
print "<title>Some Header</title>";
print "</head>";
print "<body>";
print "<h2>You have entered $sso</h2>";
print "</body>";
print "</html>";

This is not working as it is not detecting IPC::System::Simple qw(system capture) from this script. How could I make the CGI parse the $sso to myscript.pl ?

Thanks in advance....
