( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

Hello, I get the following error when I execute the below script "Can't call method "mail" on an undefined value at ./recalert.plx line 24, <RECCHK> line 9." I did not write the original perl script, I just modified the email addresses to work in my environment, and the email addresses in the below script are sanitized. The script has worked for about three years without issue, I really have no perl experience, and not sure what the error means, or how to fix it/ Please help

#!/usr/bin/perl -w $from = 'email@123.org'; $to = 'email@456.org'; $servername = 'email.789.org'; # $user ='username'; # $pwd ='password'; open RECCHK, "/tmp/statusmon.eml"; @recchkvar = <RECCHK>; use Sys::Hostname; my $host = hostname(); my $host1 = uc($host); open STDERR, '>&STDOUT'; #redirect STDERR output to STDOUT use Net::SMTP; $smtp = Net::SMTP->new("$servername", Debug => 1); ### Enable below if authentication required and set parameters above # $smtp->datasend("AUTH LOGIN\n"); # $smtp->datasend("$user\n"); # $smtp->datasend("$pwd\n"); sleep(2); $smtp->mail("$from"); $smtp->to("$to"); $smtp->data; $smtp->datasend("Subject: 79XX/69XXC/WB3 InfiniStream $host1 has an is +sue, and requires investigation \n"); foreach $line (@recchkvar) { $smtp->datasend("$line\n"); } close RECCHK; $smtp->dataend; $smtp->quit

to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
