Yes, the /usr/local/staf/lib/perl518 directory only contains the
libPLSTAF.so library for STAF support for Perl 5.18.
# ls -l /usr/local/staf/lib/perl518
total 80
-rwxrwxr-x 1 root root 70745 Jun 7 2016 libPLSTAF.so
I was trying to tell you that the PERLLIB environment variable needs to
contain the /usr/local/staf/bin directory as it contains the PLSTAF.pm
module that STAF Perl suport also requires (in addition to setting PERLLIB
to contain /usr/local/staf/lib/perl518). export
PERLLIB=/usr/local/staf/bin:/usr/local/staf/lib/perl518
# ls -l /usr/local/staf/bin/*.pm
-rwxrwxr-x 1 root root 48322 Jun 7 2016 /usr/local/staf/bin/PLSTAF.pm
-rwxrwxr-x 1 root root 6991 Jun 7 2016
/usr/local/staf/bin/PLSTAFService.pm
-rwxrwxr-x 1 root root 5173 Jun 7 2016 /usr/local/staf/bin/STAFLog.pm
-rwxrwxr-x 1 root root 2735 Jun 7 2016 /usr/local/staf/bin/STAFMon.pm
Yes, you must have Perl installed in order to build STAF Perl support for
that Perl version. Note you have to set environment variables like
PERL_V518_ROOT to where you installed Perl 5.18. For example:
export PERL_V518_ROOT=/opt/ActivePerl-5.18
See section "Building STAF Perl Support" in the STAF Developer's Guide at
http://staf.sourceforge.net/current/stafdg.html#Header_buildPerl for more
information.

Subject: Re: [staf-users] Error while loading STAF module
Thank you Sharon Lucas. Really appreciate your response and right now I
badly need some guideline for this issue.
When the bundle downloaded for staf,
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/staf/STAF3425-linux-amd64.tar.gz?download
I am only seeing .so file. in /usr/local/staf/lib/perl518. Did I missed
something ?
I have installed perl myself to version 5.18.4. I had to do this as latest
active perl available is much higher than supported .so for STAF. That
might be the problem?
At this point I am attempting to build staf from source. I could build
staf core successfully. Now trying to build perl support.
Using active perl is a mandatory even building from source?
Thanks,
Girija

Hi Girija,
Did you follow the instructions in section "3.0 Installation" in the STAF
Perl User's Guide at
http://staf.sourceforge.net/current/STAFPerl.htm#Header_Installto install
and configure STAF Perl support for Perl 5.18?
In order to have your Perl script find the specified module, you may need
to set environment variable PERLLIB to the directory containing the STAF
Perl modules (PLSTAF.pm, STAFMon.pm, STAFLog.pm), e.g. /usr/local/staf/bin
for Linux. Also, set PERLLIB to the directory containing the PLSTAF
library file (libPLSTAF.so on Linux) for Perl 5.18. For example:
export PERLLIB=/usr/local/staf/bin:/usr/local/staf/lib/perl518
Since you are getting the following error message, it would appear that
the PERLLIB environment variable does not contain /usr/local/staf/bin
(which contains the PLSTAF module):
Can't locate PLSTAF.pm in @INC (you may need to install the PLSTAF module)
(@INC contains: /usr/local/staf/lib/perl518/
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.18.4/x86_64-linux-thread-multi
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.18.4
/usr/lib/perl5/5.18.4/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/5.18.4 .)
at test.plline 1.
Are you using ActivePerl 5.18 ? Or are you trying to use perl 5.18
provided by the operating system. Often it is easier to use ActivePerl
with STAF so you may want to try that.

Subject: [staf-users] Error while loading STAF module
I am trying to setup staf on centos 7. I have installed perl 18
multithreaded.
I am new perl and so to staf. Using STAF3425-linux-amd64.tar.gz to install
staf.
I am definitely making some mistake in setting it up.
Tried to debug but couldn't pin the mistake. Need help from to figure out
what is
going wrong. Here are details
$perl -v
