I guess you've checked that $plainText isn't of length 0?

PerlRun and text/xml data: zero bytes

I am having problems reading standard input while running under PerlRun. 
I am trying to use text/xml data POSTed to an url, as opposed to form-data.

I get the data when running in CGI mode, but I get zero bytes when 
running in PerlRun mode. How do I read the data POSTed to the URL?

I have isolated my problem down to this short script:

#! /usr/bin/perl -w

use strict;
use diagnostics;
use XML::LibXML;

my $parser = XML::LibXML-new();
my input = ;
my $input = join(\n, input);
#my $doc = $parser-parse_string($input);
#my $plainText = $doc-toString();
my $plainText = $input;
my $length = length($plainText);

print Content-type: text/plain\n;
print Content-length: $length\n;
print \n;
print $plainText;

The content length is 0!

Well, I read standard input into $input, copy it into $plainText and 
check the length and it is 0. That is my problem: when I run using 
PerlRun it is 0 but I works without a problem when running in CGI mode...
