Hi,
your XML/Parser module is installed in .../mach/5.24/... but your Perl 
include path contains only the older versions .../5.20/... . So, Perl 
rightfully complains that it's not "there". You seem to have two Perl 
distributions installed in parallel, and some modules belong to the old, 
others to the newer Perl. Unless a manual cleanup (deinstalling 5.20 and 
associated modules) is successful, it might be prudent to deinstall all 
things Perl and reinstall the new version with all the modules you need.

regards,
Markus
