Yes there is something special. The loadable object (.so for unix, .dll for windows) for /.../perl/lib/MyApp2.pm is looked up in /.../perl/lib/auto/MyApp2/MyApp2.so In either case you'd better install the module properly and compile it for the exact processor, operating system and version of perl. It's quite possible that the .so you have was compiled for a different version of Perl and thus doesn't work with this one.
