Code:

[root@localhost cgi]# yum install perl CGI::Session
Loaded plugins: langpacks, refresh-packagekit
Package 4:perl-5.18.4-290.fc20.x86_64 already installed and latest version
No package CGI::Session available.
Nothing to do
[root@localhost cgi]# cat adminform2.pl
#!/usr/bin/perl

#NOTE This code has got prolem with session management
use CGI qw(:standard);
use CGI::Session;
use DBI;
my $ID;
my $Name;
my $Phone;

use CGI;
use CGI::Session;

$cgi = new CGI;
my $session = new CGI::Session(undef, $cgi, {Directory=>'/tmp'});
        
#$cookie = $cgi->cookie(CGISESSID => $session->id );
#print $cgi->header(-cookie=>$cookie);

Sure you did not type the command correctly. It is: yum install perl-CGI-Session

Instead of the dash between CGI and Session you typed this ::

Now, you necro'd a four year old thread. I am only pointing out the typo I saw. I did not check that the package is the same name or even still exists.
