Perl version and modules on new CGI server?

[#1]

Subject line says it all....how do I find out what version of Perl is running on 91.136.8.9, and what modules are installed?
Thanks.

[#2]

v5.10.1 by the looks of things.

#!/bin/bash
echo "Content-type: text/html"
perl --version

Great...thanks.
I did try the following to find out the installed modules, which works on my intranet CGI server, but it's failing (status 500) on CCGI. Could be timing out.

use strict;
use ExtUtils::Installed;
use CGI;
my ($inst) = ExtUtils::Installed->new( skip_cwd => 1 );
my (@modules) = $inst->modules();
my $query = new CGI;
print $query->header;
print $_."\n" foreach (@modules);

If all else fails, I'll just have to test if the modules I need exist.

I suspect the platform's locked down and won't let you do that. If you specify the -w argument with the shebang then you get:

Can't open file /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/i686-linux/auto/IO/Zlib/.packlist: Permission denied at /usr/share/perl5/ExtUtils/Installed.pm line 96

Hmmm....I did have

Quote

#!/usr/bin/perl -w

at the top of my script (I somehow managed to omit it from my post though) but I didn't get that error back. Mind you, I only tested with the browser - are you getting that in a log, or running the script from the command line on CCGI? I can't find any FAQ indicating that I can telnet/ssh in to test these scripts on the new server.

Actually that message is a fatal one, not a warning. You need to include…

use CGI::Carp qw/fatalsToBrowser/;

… so that the fatal message is also sent to the browser.

Suitably corrected. Thanks David

[#8]

Thank you both...I can see the error in the browser now 
A bit worried though...it seems to be checking a different set of modules (5.8.8 ) to the running version of Perl (5.10.1)
I've also sent a query to PlusNet support  to see if I can get a list of installed modules.

I'll reach out to our hosting partner for comment Neil...

Hi Neil,
The version of Perl that's installed is indeed 5.10.1. You should also find that your script to list the installed modules works OK now too. I've uploaded a copy to your cgi-bin called modules.pl, output as follows:

Much appreciated Bob....modules.pl does indeed now work for me 

[#12]

In case it's of use to anyone, I've updated http://ccgi.nkhughes.plus.com/cgi-bin/modules.pl to show the installed module version as well.
I was going to paste the list here, but it's quite big when formatted as a table, and might annoy the moderators  

[#13]

Thanks for that Neil. I'm going to create an in-life CGI FAQ for this forum at some point so this will come in handy when I do
