What do you mean, "download the postal code data"?

I tried this module, I installed it, using WHM (a cPanel Product) with the Install a Perl Module, it appeared to work ok, however, when I use the 'sample' code: 
  use Geo::PostalCode;

  my $gp = Geo::PostalCode->new(db_dir => ".");

  my $record = $gp->lookup_postal_code(postal_code => '07302');
  my $lat   = $record->{lat};
  my $lon   = $record->{lon};
  my $city  = $record->{city};
  my $state = $record->{state};

  my $distance = $gp->calculate_distance(postal_codes => ['07302','100
+04']);

  $record = $gp->lookup_city_state(city => "Jersey City",state => "NJ"
+);
  $lat          = $record->{lat};
  $lon          = $record->{lon};
  my $postal_codes = $record->{postal_codes};

  $postal_codes = $gp->nearby_postal_codes(lat => $lat, lon => $lon,
                                                   distance => 50);
print qq~<br>
 City is ~ . $city . qq~<br>
 State is ~ . $state . qq~<br>
 Latitude is ~ . $lat . qq~<br>
 Longitude is ~ . $lon . qq~<br>
 <br>
 Nearby Zips are: $postal_codes~;

[download]
(ran as a test) and I had this 'output':
City is
State is
Latitude is
Longitude is

Nearby Zips are: ARRAY(0x8674890)

So, could what you said, be the reason why it's not working?

I would appreciate your help.
thx,
Richard
