What Perl version/Perl modules are installed on the shared hosting servers?


The following steps will teach you how find the current version of Perl and to view a list of currently installed Perl Modules for a Linux shared hosting package.

Step 1:

Please access the info.pl file available from the logs folder of your webspace. It is suggested to use the technical subdomain to access this file. If using the technical subdomain, the URL would look similar to:

http:// s123456789.onlinehome.co.uk /logs/info.pl

You will need to change the domain in red to your own domain.
Step 2:

You will be prompted for a user name and password. You will need to use the User Name and Password that you would use for your initial FTP account. For more help on how to find this info, please reference What is the required information for an FTP connection?

Input this information and click the OK button.
