Question: I get the following error when trying to add links or when trying to crawl links:
Software error:
Can't locate LWP/Simple.pm in @INC (@INC contains: .....

Answer: This means that your hosting or server does not have the LWP::Simple Perl Module installed. Contact your host and ask them to install the LWP::Simple Perl module. (One of the PowerSeek requirements). This is a very popular Perl module and most hosts will normally install it for you at no charge.

If you are hosted on a virtual host (getting hosting from a hosting company on a virtual server) then something you can do is to send them the link to this Knowledge Base Entry for a complete explanation of the problem.

If this is your own server (if you have your own dedicated server) then you will need to install the Perl LWP::Simple Perl module yourself. To install the LWP::Simple Perl module on your own server run the following from an SSH session when logged in as the root user:

perl -MCPAN -e 'install LWP::Simple'

After doing the above the module will automatically be downloaded, extracted and installed for you.
