Hi All,
I have searched the archive for this mailling list and have found similar
post without answers. So I will post it myself and hope someone will be
able to help. If anyone knows of further documentation on this, please do
forward URL's.
I am trying to do a HTTPS POST with LWP and for some reason, it fails. Like
everyone one else that posted this question, a simple HTTP request works no
problem. Please find sample code found in the documentation and debug
results below:
----------------------------------------------------------------
#!/usr/local/bin/perl
# Create a user agent object
use LWP::Debug qw(+);
use LWP::UserAgent;
$ua = new LWP::UserAgent;
$ua->agent("AgentName/0.1 " . $ua->agent);
# Create a request
my $req = new HTTP::Request POST=>
'https://testshop.someHost.com/cgi-bin/test';
$req->content_type('application/x-www-form-urlencoded');
$req->content('test=ok');
# Pass request to the user agent and get a response back
my $res = $ua->request($req);
# Check the outcome of the response
if ($res->is_success) {
print $res->content;
} else {
print "Bad luck this time\n";
}
---------------------------------------------------------
LWP::UserAgent::new: ()
LWP::UserAgent::request: ()
LWP::UserAgent::simple_request: POST
https://testshop.bellxperttest.com/cgi-bin/test
LWP::UserAgent::_need_proxy: Not proxied
LWP::UserAgent::request: Simple result: Not Implemented
Bad luck this time
Thanks,
Ren
