Re: unsetting the proxy server
David, thanks. it works like a charm... I unset all the proxy setting: http_proxy, http_proxy_user and http_proxy_pass.

Re: upgrading www::mechanize
Randy, thanks for your help. I have looked into ActiveState docs on proxy and in mailing list but still to no avail. So I ended using different network that has no proxy server, deleted all the proxy setting, and installed the modules. By the way, are you planning to have Win32::IE::Mechanize soon in your repository? Thanks once again.

unsetting the proxy server
Just out of curiousity... Is there anyway that I can unset the proxy server. When I set it at first, I use c:\> set http_proxy=http://proxy:port c:\> set http_proxy_user=domainName\loginID c:\> set http_proxy_pass=xxx Then, I read more information on how to do it using environment variables. When I am using my machine on different environment that does not use proxy, I have an error that looks something like this: "Bad hostname 'http://proxy:port'" I tried to delete the environment variables, but it still outputs the error. Does anyone have any ideas on how to solve this problem? Thanks in advanced.

upgrading www::mechanize
Hi monks, My current www::mechanize is version 0.72 because I installed it using ppm. I am wanting to upgrade it so I can use some function such as "select", "URI" to do more stuff... How can I do this properly? I tried to use "upgrade" on ppm prompt, but it has taken minutes and still processing and has not shown me the available upgrades.

unable to download Crypt-SSLeay
I am trying to download Crypt-SSLeay to support https URLs so I won't get error like 501 Protocol Scheme 'https' is not supported. I encountered the following error : "Failed to download http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppms/Crypt-SSLeay.ppd : 500 Server closed connection " When I tried to do this ppm> install http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppms/Crypt-SSLeay.ppd My hunch this is something to do with my proxy based on my previous experience with LWP when it encountered 500 Server closed connection. If so, how can I specify my proxy host on the prompt? I also tried to go CPAN website but the page for Crypt list can't be found. Please help, thanks in advanced. ___ Perl-Win32-Users mailing list Perl-Win32-Users@listserv.ActiveState.com To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs
LWP : 500 Server closed connection without sending any data back
Hello everyone,
I have installed ActiveState Perl on my computer, and it has LWP version 5.803.
(I use perl -MLWP -le "print (LWP->VERSION)"
Right now, I am trying to learn to use LWP. However, LWP doesn't seem to work.
I tried to run a simple program with the following code:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use LWP;
my $browser = LWP::UserAgent->new( );
my $response = $browser->get("http://www.oreilly.com/";);
print $response->header("Server"), "\n";
When I ran it, it doesn't output anything.
I tried different codes:
!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use URI::Escape;
foreach my $word (@ARGV) {
next unless length $word;
my $url = 'http://www.altavista.com/sites/search/web?q=%22'
. uri_escape($word) . '%22&kl=XX';
my ($content, $status, $is_success) = do_GET($url);
if (!$is_success) {
print "Sorry, failed: $status\n";
} elsif ($content =~ m/>AltaVista found ([0-9,]+) results?/) { # like "1,952"
print "$word: $1 matches\n";
} else {
print "$word: Page not processable, at $url\n";
}
sleep 2; }
use LWP;
my $browser;
sub do_GET {
$browser = LWP::UserAgent->new unless $browser;
my $resp = $browser->get(@_);
return ($resp->content, $resp->status_line, $resp->is_success, $resp)
if wantarray;
return unless $resp->is_success;
return $resp->content;
}
This will output: "Sorry, failed 500: Server closed connection without sending
any data back "
Same output for entering this on command prompt: perl -MLWP::Simple -e
"getprint 'http://cpan.org/RECENT'"
Please kindly advise on how to solve this problem.
Thank you in advanced.
Regards,
Irma Nugroho
