Actually that was perceptive of you. I had included one of the lines I
should have commented out. I kept commenting out various line until I
could restart the web server. But I kept getting error like this that
are looking at the wrong instance of perl:

Can't locate Locale/Maketext.pm in @INC (@INC contains:
