As I mentioned, haven't changed anything with my system since original
install. Is there an easy way to figure out whether or not  I already
have the needed CGI module?

perl -e "use CGI::Util"

if it reports an error, then it is not being found. If nothing, then you are ok.

 I've been searching through my system and
elsewhere to try and figure out. I down loaded a minimal CGI package
that should have included this.

hopefully it does. but the perl command in my previous post can be used for just about any missing module. perl -MCPAN -e "install CGI::Util" might also work.

Just strange that everything has been
worked fine to date until new install.

new versions with new features may require new Perl modules. This is the nature of Perl. It's strength comes from the huge library of ready to use modules.

Also, how and where do I run the script? From a command prompt?

you run it in a terminal window. xterm would do. eterm also.
best to make yourself familiar with the xterm use. it can get you out of a lot of tough spots.
