I looked up your modules on CPAN and I see you're using the BioPerl package. There are 860 modules, 84 utility scripts, and a dozen or more documents. I don't know about the rest of y'all, but I'm not going to install and search the files. :-)

From what I can see, Bio::Root::Exception is designed to throw exceptions, and the stack trace seems to be saying that it began with tagfinder.pl. How does that relate to the code you posted?

I would guess that one of the many BioPerl modules is attempting to validate your data and failing. But we don't know where in your script it's failing or how you're running the program. In fact, I notice you've got print statements throughout your code, but there are none in your original post; so I can only guess that you didn't post the entire output. Is that true? If so, then what do you expect us to do? Even if someone here knows BioPerl and decides to respond, you still haven't given them enough to go on.

Care to try again?
