in reply to Perl Interpreter / OS problem

My guess is, that the problem comes from how the script interacts with the environment.

Seriously, with the very scant amount of detail you provide, it could either be that the atomic influx regulator isn't working, the blinker fluid has become stale, or the USB driver for the dilithium resonators isn't installed properly on one machine.

So you could either fix these problems or maybe post some code, and/or some more specific description of what relevant things your program does. Even better would be if you cut away as much as possible of your script and posted a 10 line script that exhibits the behaviour. See also How (not) to ask a question?.

    All of the appropriate modules are installed on both machines. Excerpt of the code where it hangs up: 
    #perl.exe

use strict;
$|++;
use WWW::Mechanize;
my %seen;
my $scraper = WWW::Mechanize->new();
my $mech = WWW::Mechanize->new();

my $home = <STDIN>;

&main($home);

sub main {

    my $line = shift;
    $scraper->get($line);
    
    my @LinkArray = $scraper->find_all_links();
        if (defined @LinkArray){
    my @urls = map { $_->[0]} @LinkArray;
    shift @urls if $seen{$line}++;
    foreach my $url(@urls){
        print "\n", $url;
        ++$index_level;
        $scraper->get($url);
        next if $seen{$url}++;
        &followlink($url);
    }
       my $dest = shift @PublicLinks;
    &main($dest);
        return;
      }else{
    return;
  }
}
