[pm-h] Perl Modules at HG

Sat Dec 1 09:12:36 PST 2018

Without root access I do not believe you can install gcc, and since you
cannot install File::Find without gcc you maybe SOL.

Perhaps you should consider moving your site, Siteocity is a full cPanel
server and is about $70/year.  It should allow you access to File::Find if
you use the cPanel Perl #!/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/bin/perl
