Hello Jaime,
it's always helpful to include which distribution Your linux installation is based
on
(if it's linux - could be Solaris or BSD as well, which would mean others could be
more
of help than me).
Anyway, it seems that Your sperl does have the sgid bit set, but not the suid bit.
You can change this by issuing the command
chmod u+s /usr/bin/sperl*
After that, things should be up and running (bar any other errors).
Regards,
Harald
