Module present in @INC but not found

kcella has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I have created my own module and placed it in /home/kcella/lib but cannot get perl to find it. The path has been added to @INC, spellig is correct, the use statement is present and permissions are 755. What else could I be missing? Output from execution:

Can't locate Config/CronJob.pm in @INC (@INC contains: C:/cygwin/home/
+kcella/bin/../lib C:\Program Files\ActiveState Perl Dev Kit 6.0\lib\ 
+c:/Perl/site/lib c:/Perl/lib .) at C:\cygwin\home\kcella\bin\cronjobm
+an.pl line 16.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at C:\cygwin\home\kcella\bin\cronjob
+man.pl line 16.

Output from ls on my module:

$ ls -l /home/kcella/lib/Config/CronJob/CronJob.pm 
-rwxr-xr-x 1 kcella None 1259 Jan  7 21:26 /home/kcella/lib/Config/Cro
+nJob/CronJob.pm

Yes, I know I am using Activestate perl on cygwin. There is only one copy of the interpreter and I have already dealt with the issues for path conversion. Another odd thing, if I copy the module to c:/Perl/site/lib it works without any errors.

You seem to have a directory level too many in your module path. The file should have been put at `/home/kcella/lib/Config/CronJob.pm`, not `/home/kcella/lib/Config/CronJob/CronJob.pm`.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Well now I feel silly. That was all it took. I had too many levels in my directory structure. Why in the world that did not occur to me is a mystery. Thanks!	[reply]

The file should have been put at /home/kcella/lib/Config/CronJob.pm, or you could have been used your module this way use Config::CronJob::CronJob;	[reply]

If you do that, though, make sure the `package` declaration matches the module name, or you'll end up with very confusing results.	[reply] [d/l]

The only one I can think of is if you use a different module name in a separate use or require statement. Did you have another in mind?	[reply]

Although you speak of a windows perl, that I've only installed, and never touched I would guess that perl is perl, and suggest sticking `use lib '/home/kcella/lib';` in your code or setting `PERL5LIB` or `PERLLIB` in the environment ... Like I say, I've not tried it, but it may be worth a look. `@_=qw; ask f00li5h to appear and remain for a moment of pretend better than a lifetime;;s;;@_[map hex,split'',B204316D8C2A4516DE];;y/05/os/&print;`	[reply] [d/l] [select]
