Those first two errors appear to be generated by the perl interpretor.
Meaning... something is probably wrong with the apcmon script syntax.
Try the command: perl -c /usr/local/nocol/bin/apcmon
which should give you the complete list of errors in the script.
(Substitute the actual path for apcmon. of course :)
Fix the code until you get "apcmon syntax OK" as the result.
Hope that helps :)
