Re: libxerces-c.so.25

You are trying to use XML::Xerces or are using a module that in turn uses XML::Xerces, but the Perl you are using doesn't have XML::Xerces installed.

The remedy is to either install XML::Xerces (see the tutorials here and elsewhere) or to stop using XML::Xerces and the modules that require it.

The error might also mean that XML::Xerces is installed, but for some reason it cannot find the external shared library libxerces-c.so.25 that the module was compiled against. This might mean that it's not available on the system, for which one should get and install the library, and then recompile the XML::Xerces package against it. If it is available, you may have to either run ldconfig() to update the links to the libraries, or else set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable to point to the directory where the library is found, if it's a non-standard location.

We have a similar looking error. Although not exactly the same. Error....
