Thank you for that.
I have been looking more at the example which failed because LWP::Protocol::https module is required.
This failure message is only given when the final line of trying to print $html is included in the Perl.
$html is set equal to $res->content. Printing the variable $res I get the text HTTP::Response=HASH(0x54d8608)

As I only want to read the contents of the original web page, can I simply read the 'content' and therefore store the data in a hash? If so how is this done?

If this can be done if may mean I do not have to find out how to install the missing modules and their dependencies.

Run this script and post the output to show which OS, perl and module versions you have

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;

print grep /buil/i,qx(perl -v);
print grep /buil|osname|uname|compile/i,qx(perl -V);
printf "OS   = %s\nPerl = %s\n\n",$^O,$^V;

my @modules = qw(LWP::UserAgent LWP::Protocol::https Mozilla::CA);
for my $mod (@modules){
  if ( eval "use $mod;1" ) {
    no strict 'refs';
    printf "%-20s = %s\n",$mod,${$mod.'::VERSION'};
  } else {
    print "ERROR $@";
  }
}  
print join "\n",'','@INC = ',@INC;
[download]

update 1 using eval

update 2 added Mozilla:CA
