wrong path
hello buddy,
I parsed your code and practically everything seemed to be correct.
I feel you there is something wrong with the interpreter line.
check the path of your perl binary aka #which perl
so the first line should be
#!<the_actual_path_that_is_returned_by_which perl>
probably in your earlier env you would have been having this path
/usr/bin/perl
but perl is installed in some other dir.
correct the first (interpreter line ) as stated above and your code will run fine.
Hope you get it working.

KILL(1) General Commands Manual KILL(1)
NAME
kill, broke - print commands to kill processes
SYNOPSIS
kill name
broke
DESCRIPTION
Kill prints commands that will cause all processes called name and owned by the current user to be terminated. Use the send command of
81/2(1), or pipe the output of kill into rc(1) to execute the commands.
Kill suggests sending a kill note to the process; the same message delivered to the process's ctl file (see proc(3)) is a surer, if heavy
handed, kill, but is necessary if the offending process is ignoring notes.
Broke prints commands that will cause all processes in the Broken state and owned by the current user to go away. When a process dies
because of an error caught by the system, it may linger in the Broken state to allow examination with a debugger. Executing the commands
printed by broke lets the system reclaim the resources used by the broken processes.
