Welcome to the list.  First and foremost, please make a concerted effort to
use a subject line that accurately reflects the content of the message.  If
it pertains to a specfic platform place [RAQ3] or similar before the
content.

i.e.
Subject: [RAQ3] Perl Modules

Now, on to the solution.

This is a stab in the dark, but I am going to give it a shot.  Did you use
the 
perl ./Configure
make
make install

Method to install the modules?  It sounds like you may have hand-copied the
module binaries--perhaps they ended up in the wrong path or something.
