Can't locate loadable object for module

All,

I had this problem and wanted to post it here because I have found that
a lot of people are having this problem without many answers. This may
not be the fix-all solution, but it hould help some.

Error message:
Can't locate loadable object for module Date::Calc

I did google searches and stuff and it seems a lot of people have the
problem, but all the answers were just "Did you install it right? Did
you download the module from CPAN? etc..." None of this helped me. I
actually used Mandrake's urpmi AND I seperately tried perl -MCPAN -e
'install Data::Calc' but neither worked.

First, what was curious was that my program would run as root, but not
as apache for running in CGI mode.

So, to make a long story short, I found that a parent directory to the
..so file was mode 700 keeping the apache user from getting to it.

Step 1) Find the .so
find /usr/lib/perl5/ -name "Calc.*"
Step 2) Verify perms on parents of .so
ls -l /usr/lib/perl5/
ls -l /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl
ls -l /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5
ls -l /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/i386-linux-thread-multi/
ls -l /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto
Step 3) Change perms on parent
chmod 755 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto/
