Don't run it explicitly with perl.  Try and run:

/var/www/etools/chocolate/html/perltest.pl

If that fails with the same error check that the #! line's pointing at
the correct perl interpreter.  Also if the file has ever been through
a Wintendo machine make sure there's not a trailing ^M on the end of
the #! either.
