Your problem is a perl problem (or an apache problem). The first error message shows that you have a scoping issue, as it is trying to resolve the subroutine name gimp_file_load within the current package (Apache::ROOT::index_2ecgi). You either need to qualify your subroutine call with a package (Gimp::...), do this indirectly with an object created by the Gimp package ($image->...), or import the subroutine symbols from the Gimp package (perhaps "use Gimp qw(:auto);" will do what you want). The protocol error message makes me think you may not have a recent Gimp. Fix the first problem and see if this error still persists. If it does and you're not using the newest Gimp then upgrade. The third error, well, welcome to Perl ;) Seriously, fix the other stuff first. If the 3rd error still crops up you've (90% likely) got your arguments list wrong.
