in reply to Installing Image::Exif in lib directory

The version you need depends on the specific architecture your webhost is running...

What does perl -V (when run on your webserver) say?

The idea would be to build the module on a compatible machine (or get it from someone who can do that for you), and then copy the architecture specific parts into an auto/Image/Exif subdirectory in your private Perl lib directory   (of course, that would only work if your host does allow you to execute/load private binaries/shared object files — in some cases this is deliberately disabled...)

    Bluehost currently runs Perl 5.8.7.

    Thanks

      The Perl version doesn't sufficiently identify what you'd need. The interesting part is the architecture, e.g. i486-linux, or x86_64-linux-thread-multi, or some such...

      Best is to just show the output of perl -V. If you don't have shell access, you could try to run that command in a CGI script...
