below is the complete output of "perl -V", thanks.

I personally believe that while this suggestion of your is certainly sensible, and the most important one as far as the target of solving his problem is concerned, it would be also recommendable to tell the OP to wrap the output up in <readmore> tags for viewing clarity in the various sections listings.
