Can anyone suggest why the following runs at the command line but dies on $ftp->ls when run from the web browser? I'm completely baffled. But this really is what's happening - exact same file, does what it says on the can when run from the command line, dies in the browser. Did I mention I was baffled?
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use lib '/home/httpd/lib';
use CGI qw/:standard :cgi-lib/;
print header;
use jbr::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser warningsToBrowser);
warningsToBrowser(1);
use Net::FTP;
$| = 1;
my $ftp = Net::FTP->new("ftp.xxxxx.xxx", Debug => 0);
$ftp->login('xxxxxxx','xxxxxx');
$ftp->cwd('/tst') or die;
my @files = $ftp->ls or die;
print h2 "deleting old pages...";
for (@files) {
print p $_;
$ftp->delete($_);
}

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).
