Okay ... I know others will say this too - but cgi-lib.pl is evil incarnate and replacing this CGI will not only save your soul, but also mean that you will no longer have issues with require in your code.

Why is cgi-lib.pl so evil? Have a look at use CGI or die;

As onto your specific problem with cgi-lib.pl - What errors are being returned? What is showing up in your server log when you try and run your CGI script? Is it possible that you have not set the right path or permissions for your code? Have a look at the CGI Help Guide by tachyon which provides some excellent directions for CGI code debugging.
