Please post in one topic and not multiple! Your question will be answered in time.


You can try using find / | grep perl

normaly perl is in the standard location as in every machine unless you did something strange with installation.

#!/usr/bin/perl should be the first line and check that /usr/bin/perl exists.
 
Where are you using these commands?

They're designed to be used while logged in through ssh.

You can't use these test on port 21; ftp doesn't understand these commands.

I'd suggest you get in touch with your hosting provider, as only they are going to be able to tell you the proper paths on your system.

Did you try the "which perl" command?
Most likely it's going to be in /usr/local or /usr/local/bin
 
downfall, do you have ssh rights to your server?

Are you a system owner (admin), or are you a reseller of webhosting, or are you a hosting client?

If you're a hosting client then you'll need to check with your hosting provider. Only your hosting provider can tell you how the server is set up.

i am just a client and my stupid host protollix.net i think
has no phone number

and no one even replies to the support forum
i want to cry
 
Have you tried sending them an email?
If there is no way to contact them, then perhaps it's time to find a new host. ;)
