This sounds to me as if you have at least two versions of perl on your path, one in /temp/cpt5hli/comptel_common/tmp_cpt5hli/install/AIX/perl/ and one in /projects/elink2/common/current/perl. Make up your mind which one you want to use and set up $ENV{PATH} so that the other one cannot be found anymore.

    Thank you, this could be the problem, since one of those directories does not exist anymore.

    Could you please tell me which environment variables the perl install script took those values from? I can't seem to find them in PATH, there is no env variable named PERL_LIB and PERL5LIB contains entirely different values.

      See Config.pm somewhere under the Perl tree. If you are unlucky, perl has been built with the directories hardcoded into the binary. Then you need to reconfigure and recompile.

        Thanks, I found the Config.pm with the paths in it.
