This looks like a gnucash backup file. Although it is
a valid gnucash data file, I'm assuming you would rather
use your original file, which is the file with the name
you originally chose when you saved for the first time.

You are missing some perl modules. The easiest way to get them
is to use the 'cpan' script and use the commmand:

install Bundle::LWP

at the cpan prompt.
