in reply to run module from cgi-bin

You can run it from the cgi-bin or a lib directory either way tachyon's A Guide to Installing Modules Tutorial describes how to do this, under heading "I don't have permission to install a module on the system!".

    I can create this /lib directory only via FTP, and put there a module.

    Is this correct: 

    #!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use lib '/usr/home/myr_home_dir/lib/';
use warnings;
use CGI;
use LWP::Simple;

      yes, if you're still having problems I'd check the permissions of the directories leading to lib (other users at least needs read permission)
