Install the Email::Date::Format module on your production server. Please don't ignore the formatting advice (as previously mentioned). Consider running the same version of Perl on development as you do in production. Note that your production version is 8 years old. Avoid using the system install or Perl. Your operating system uses this for various things. It's fairly simple to install your own (modern) version of perl elsewhere on the system.	[reply]

Email::Date::Format module is not there in Dev server but the script seems to be working fine, could there be any other reason for it to not execute in the prod environment.	[reply]

I think your logic and testing may be flawed. The MIME::Lite documentation states: "MIME::Lite works nicely with other certain other modules if they are present. Good to have installed are the latest MIME::Types, Mail::Address, MIME::Base64, MIME::QuotedPrint, and Net::SMTP. Email::Date::Format is strictly required.	[reply]

Try find and/or locate (but verify) commands; use -M option of perl along with -e (see perlrun); run autobundle (overkill I think); see App::Module::Lister module; etc.	[reply]
