in reply to Root installed perl modules not see by webservd

I have tried chmod +R a+r /usr/perl5

Try 

chmod -R a+rX ...
            ^

[download]

Directories need to have the 'x' bit set for them to be traversable across a path...

('r' controls whether the directory contents can be listed, but this is only possible if the directories can be accessed at all, which is controlled by 'x').

    almut,

    Many thanks, that worked!
    I often am held up by things I think should work... but do not.
