This plugin not working on ubuntu 14.04 but it is working on ubuntu 16.04. It is not compatible with older versions.
Please suggest.

@rajeshbabukolli currently this plugin is only tested and supported on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS or higher with Perl 5.018 or higher. Did you try it with the latest version of Perl?

Michel,
actually in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS is also having higher version of perl, it is 5.182.

root@localhost:~# perl -v

This is perl 5, version 18, subversion 2 (v5.18.2) built for x86_64-linux-gnu-thread-multi
(with 55 registered patches, see perl -V for more detail)

We don't the effects of latest perl with other services which are running, that's why i not updating perl.

@rajeshbabukolli I will try to re-create this problem with a fresh ubuntu 14.04 LTS installation, and will let you know ASAP.
