After fixing some (what I assume are copy and paste errors) I get some useful information from perl -c.

This code won't even compile, so there is no use in poking around modules - you need to fix the basic perl stuff.

Once you do that:

• Make sure the code passes perl -c script.cgi
• Look to see what works and what doesn't
• Check for error messages in the log file
• If you can't find error messages in the log file. Run from the command line (there is plenty of info on that if you go to Search)
• Then if you're still stuck - Try and narrow the problem down to a resonable number of lines
• Then you can post relavant information here (errors, the lines of code, what it's supposed to do, and what it doesn't do)
