Perl Useragent Timeout

a code to download a file from the net. The link works when tried 500 read timeout error from a browser. But, not using the below script: #!/usr/local/bin/perl -w use strict; use LWP::UserAgent; my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new; my $req

500 Ssl Read Timeout Error

= HTTP::Request->new(GET => $url); my $res = $ua->request($req); if($res->is_success){ print $res->is_success."\n"; my @data = split '\n', $res->content; foreach my $line (@data){ print $line."\n"; } } else{ my @data = split '\n', $res->content; print $res->status_line . perl lwp useragent 500 read timeout "\n"; print $res->as_string . "\n"; my $err = sprintf "(%d)(%s)(%d)(%s)\n", $!,$!,$^E,$^E; print "Err: $err\n"; print "\n\n\n\\n\n\n"; for my $i(0 .. 256){ $! = $i; $^E = $i; printf "(%d)(%s)(%d)(%s)\n", $!,$!,$^E,$^E; } } [download] The only problem is that I cannot mention the URL used. Here is the output: 500 read timeout 500 (Internal Server Error) read timeout Content-Type: text/plain Client-Date: Tue, 15 Jun 2010 12:19:02 GMT Client-Warning: Internal response 500 lwp::useragent ssl read timeout Err: (0)()(0)() Any idea if this is a server side problem, or a client-side? Sure looks like a sever side, but the link works externally. Also, the file is being downloaded if I use curl. Thanks, Bharat.

I don't see where you set $url in your code.And it looks like you have warnings and stricture turned on, so you should get an appropriate error message for not declaring $url. duff [reply][d/l][select] Re^2: LWP 500 read timeout by bharat88 (Initiate) on Jun 15, 2010 at 14:57UTC Hey duff, Like I said, I can't mention the URL. But I have defined it in my code. [reply] Re: LWP 500 read timeout by ahmad (Hermit) on Jun 16, 2010 at 01:17UTC My guess, You forgot to load HTTP::Request module. Which is not required for your script and I have absolutely no idea why you're using it while the only thing you need is already included in LWP::UserAgent module a simple $ua->get would the job just fine, you don't need to build a request yourself.[reply][d/l] Re^2: LWP 500 read timeout by Anonym
