use libapreq2 to read POST params

[Dave Viner]

Hi,
I'm trying to use libapreq2 to read some parameters submitted via  
POST, but I'm having trouble.  Should I use $req->body($myparam) ? or  
$req->param($myparam)?


My code looks like this:

        $r->log->debug("Testing param");
        my ($md5, $entered);
        eval { $md5 = $req->param('cv'); } ;
        if($@)
        {
            use Data::Dumper;
            $r->log->error("ACK: no cv param: " . [EMAIL PROTECTED]>strerror() . "  
-- " . Dumper($@));
            return $class->handle_get($r, $Site, $req,
                                    'The code entered was not  
valid.<br>Please try again.');
        }
        $r->log->debug("For cv got... $md5");


The error log shows the following:

[Fri Sep 22 10:59:56 2006] [debug] /Users/dviner/Documents/amb/dev/

The request I sent is as follows:

$ cat sign.params | lwp-request -m POST -SUsue "http:// 
lalala.aboutmybaby.localhost/guestbook/sign"
$ cat sign.params
gbentry_from=hithere&gbentry_body=foobar&cv=1111111&cg=abcdef

$

Here are the details of my installation:

Thanks for your help.
