Background
The config_odbc, EXAplus, and EXAjload scripts use Perl as the executable and depend on the Perl modules FindBin and Net::Ping. However, these modules are not available by default on the latest operating systems such as Fedora 41, leading to script execution errors.
Improvement
Updated the config_odbc, EXAjload, and EXAplus scripts to ensure compatibility with the latest operating system versions, including Fedora 41. This involved removing the dependencies on Perl modules FindBin and Net::Ping.
