You have a duplicate Database line for your variable database.  check
your catalog.cfg and included files (including files in the dbconf
directory and subdirectories).

This is an issue with Business::UPS and needs to be taken up with the
author of that module.  It is porobably safe to ignore the warning, though.

If you trust everyone who has access to the server then you generally
don't have to worry about that, but it's a good idea to fix it anyways.
 The proper way to fix it is to properly set the owner and suid
permissions bit on your vlink file so that it can access the socket
without requiring 666 permissions on the socket.
