I am new to Freeswitch, I started to write a dial plan using perl instead of xml in the case of IVR.
I used the following statement in the dialplan/default.xml file
<extension name="IVR">
       <condition field="destination_number" expression="5000">
               <action application="perl" data="/tmp/test.pl"/>
       </condition>
</extension>
I am using Twinkle Soft phone.When I am calling to 5000 in the freeswitch console it tells the following error.
Invalid application perl.

From that I understood there is no Perl module  has been installed.Then I uncommented the line <load module="mod_perl">  from modules.conf.xml. Again I checked with my Perl version it also supports
usemultiplicity.

Where I made a mistake?
Can anyone please solve my problem?
I want to execute the Perl script  in the dial plan.

Did you also uncomment the line:

languages/mod_perl

in modules.conf when you compiled FS? I believe it's commented out by default. [Something I personally disagree with...but I would bear Larry Wall's children if I could manage it physiologically.]

edit modules.conf in th build root for FS
uncomment the line that builds mod_perl

issue "make mod_perl-install" from the shell

edit /usr/local/freeswitch/conf/autoload_configs/modules.conf.xml and uncomment the mod_perl line.

It is not built by default because it requires manual intervention to
make sure you have a proper threadsafe perl and all its dev libs
installed first. We work hard to make sure all default modules build
out of the box with minimal external dependencies. Also, this module
still does not work 100% on some platforms (solaris?)

On Suse Linux (Pick a version, 10.3 and 11.1 confirmed) you need to
rebuild perl entirely, otherwise FS will crash and burn upon a perl
script being called from the dial plan.
