Why does my Perl program complain “Can't locate URI.pm in @INC”?

Question

I\'m new to Perl. I get the following error when I run a script:

Can\'t locate URI.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/local/packages/perl_remote/5.6.1/lib/5.6.1/i86pc         


        

Answer 1

The nonstandard paths in @INC (e.g. /usr/local/packages, perl_remote etc) indicate to me that this is a custom perl installed for a specific purpose probably with reduced functionality to prevent mischief.

Ask the sysadmin.
