				Hello
 
 
I have installed a Perl module called Image::ExifTool on my Mac. I did the full install of the .gz (not simply copy the executable to /usr/local/bin). 
 
It runs a .cgi file just fine from the command line but when I execute the same file using your server and web browser I get a server error if the “use Image::ExifTool;” line is included. If I comment it out, the script doesn’t give an error. All other Perl .cgi scripts of mine run just fine. 
 
 
I did the same install on my Amazon EC2 server and it runs fine. Abyss Web Server has a problem with it. How can I fix the issue?

				sjmonty,
 
 
Perl should have logged any errors it may have reported inside the log/cgi.log file. So could you please check it and copy/paste the errors here?
 
 
That file is by default found inside the log sub-directory which on its turn is inside Abyss Web Server installation directory (folder)? _________________ Follow @abyssws on Twitter

				| Aprelium email support discovered that I had two separate installations of Perl on my computer. Once I pointed the web server to the correct Perl interpreter, the module could work. Thank you to Aprelium for helping me figure this out. |
