Execution of -e aborted due to compilation errors. # Hmmm. Maybe you didn't copy and paste... # perl -e 'use strict; print map {"$_ => $INC{$_}\n"} keys %INC' strict.pm => /usr/share/perl5/strict.pm # > As a user: > > $ perl -e 'use strict; print "ok"' > Can't locate strict.pm: Permission denied at -e line 1. > BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at -e line 1. $ perl -le 'use strict; print "ok"' ok $ > $ ls -l /usr/share/perl5/strict.pm > -rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 3933 Jan 7 09:48 /usr/share/perl5/strict.pm Your installation is broken. This file (and all Perl module files) should have 0644 permissions -- not execute. $ ls -l /usr/share/perl5/strict.pm -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 3933 Jan 7 09:48 /usr/share/perl5/strict.pm $ The error message you encountered may be because of you not having access to an intermediate directory in the path to strict.pm. You should check that: $ for d in /usr /usr/share /usr/share/perl5;do ls -ld $d;done drwxr-xr-x. 12 root root 4096 Dec 21 11:13 /usr/ drwxr-xr-x. 288 root root 12288 Mar 28 15:24 /usr/share/ drwxr-xr-x. 49 root root 4096 Jan 11 17:59 /usr/share/perl5/ $ Anyway, since one thing in your installation is hosed, you probably should reinstall perl to get the correct permissions set on its files. I would be wondering how I managed to do that to the file, though. The rpm -V command /might/ be of help to you.
