If your install is correct and you are still having problems, then it would have to mean that the correct perl modules are not compiled on your server. It works for hmiguelito on all his sites because the pm's are installed, for others the same.
Run perl diver, if you are missing one of the perl modules, please ask your web host providor to install those missing. It's a simple process and doesn't degrade performance.
