You might want to consider working with the host of your domain to see if there might be something within the shebang (the
) such as it pointing to an invalid Perl home. I'm sure they would be able to help you make sure Perl is set up correctly from their end. After that, someone here could help with any actual script problems you're encountering.

Go to and download Perl 5 to your local machine
Yes. Once you have downloaded Perl 5, you will still have to have to have a web server. If Apache is too complex for you, you might try the Xitami web server.( Its free, small and easy to use.
