in reply to perl configuration shows some very strange things... [an easy one]

Hi Perlbeginner1,
I think you need to step back a while on this.
Because, like it was told you in this trend mozrepl plus www.mecha firefox - curious errors, and others before it, that the module WWW::Mechanize::Firefox is not installed on your Perl standard directories which is on your system atleast as shown by this error:

Can't locate WWW/Mechanize/Firefox.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/lib +/perl5/site_perl/5.16.0/i586-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_p +erl/5.16.0 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.16.0/i586-linux-thread-multi +/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.16.0 /usr/lib/perl5/5.16.0/i586-linux-th +read-multi /usr/lib/perl5/5.16.0 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.16.0/i586 +-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.16.0 /usr/lib/perl5/si +te_perl

What I device you try is this:
  1. If you have access to another system, where you can try installing the module, see it that works. I had to install the module using cpan> force install WWW::Mechanize::Firefox on Win 7
  2. Install Perlbrew a tool to manage multiple perl installations in your $HOME directory. Then try several perl installations with this module
Maybe this may work for you.

If you tell me, I'll forget.
If you show me, I'll remember.
if you involve me, I'll understand.
