Perl item turn-ins

[Puck6633]

Alright, I've been fiddling with this for almost a week, so I think it's time to just ask.

I've installed EQEmu 5.2 for perl (the precompiled version availible on the source forge page) and created a simple quest to test the system. Everything worked just fine until I got to the item turn-ins - which do nothing, at all.

I've tried everything I can think of, and searched the forums many times, none of them returning any results. This leads me to believe that no one else is having this problem, and thus it must be something I'm doing wrong. I just don't know what it is.

The quest I'm using is:

sub EVENT_SAY { 
  if ($text =~ /Hail/i) {
    quest::say("Hello there. Give me an item to test the item event.");
  }
}
sub EVENT_ITEM { 
    quest::say("It works.");
}

It works fine in the quest emulator, but in-game turning in an item produces no respose.

I'm at a complete loss, and any suggestions are welcome.
