That's because you probably haven't compiled the Crypt::Blowfish binary
extensions (".so", ".dll" or whatever). Crypt::Blowfish has some parts written
in C that are compiled into machine code, and used as a Perl extension and you
need to upload them to the server. Just uploading it isn't enough.
Do you have a C compiler (such as http://gcc.gnu.org/ ) on the server? If so,
you can do the "perl Makefile.PL ; make ; make test ; make install" routine".
For more information see:

God gave us two eyes and ten fingers so we will type five times as much as we
read.
