Well, since the exception is apparently caused by Time::Piece (even though it's a core module), try using something else:
use strict; use warnings; use feature 'say';
use DateTime::Format::Strptime;
my $parser = DateTime::Format::Strptime->new(pattern => '%m/%d/%Y', on
+_error => 'croak');
my $date = '05/10/1969';
my $dt = $parser->parse_datetime( $date );
say $dt->ymd;
What does that do on your Windows system?
The way forward always starts with a minimal test.
