The problem is with line 7 and 25

line 7 -- shown below is prety simple
5 #### adding the bits from teat.pl
6 use warnings;
7 use LWP::Simple;

Line 25 -- shown below, is just a simple getstore, this works when run from
the command line, but when run form the webserver, I get above error
message, I've tried the usual 500 error messages, just wondering if anyone
has any ideas ???

Always read the documentation for the modules you're using.
