Hi everyone, I have a script called switchscan.pl which is turned into an executable called switchscan through the use of Par Packer. When I run the switchscan, it tries to load the module SwitchScan::Service::local::mlnx, but I end up with this error:

Attempt to reload SwitchScan/Service/local/mlnx.pm aborted (#1)
    (F) You tried to load a file with use or require that failed to
    compile once already.  Perl will not try to compile this file agai
+n
    unless you delete its entry from %INC.  See "require" in perlfunc 
+and
    "%INC" in perlvar.
    
Compilation failed in require at script/switchscan.pl line 42 (#2)
    (F) Perl could not compile a file specified in a require statement
+.
    Perl uses this generic message when none of the errors that it
    encountered were severe enough to halt compilation immediately.
    
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at script/switchscan.pl line 42 (#3)
    (F) An untrapped exception was raised while executing a BEGIN
    subroutine.  Compilation stops immediately and the interpreter is
    exited.
    
Uncaught exception from user code:
    Attempt to reload SwitchScan/Service/local/mlnx.pm aborted.
    Compilation failed in require at script/switchscan.pl line 42.
    BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at script/switchscan.pl line 42.

How do I get the actual error that caused the compilation failure? When I run perl -c on mlnx.pm before packing everything with Par Packer, I get "syntax OK". Something in the packing process is causing the failure, but I'm at a loss for how to further troubleshoot.

Much appreciated.
