"dynamic loading not available in this perl"?
This is the first time I see report. Did you compile perl yourself and
disable some features at compile time? It seems unlikely that any
distributer distributes perl without such core feature.
After searching in Google, one of the possible reasons may be your
libperl.so not corresponding to your perl executable, that is f.e. at:
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/CORE/libperl.so
It seems that your perl instalation is partially broken, so I suggest to
install some distibuted binary package (or compile yourself).
Otherwise, what happens if you comment our the "require Data::Dumper;"
line and add "use Data::Dumper;" at the beginning of the script?
Regards,
Mikhael.
