I've struck a problem. I'm using MP3::Mplib and interactively it works just fine and dandy, however via a browser, it doesnt. It will read the info from the MP3, but not write to it, nor return any error.

I'm using apache, the u/g is nobody:nobody, the file is nobody:nobody, i've even set the perms to 777 all the way down the tree, still nothing.

The docs mention a true value on success, and that is certainly true if i check $mp3->error, infact the output is a hash ref with {album => 2}

I'm at a bit of a loss, and if anyone can shed a bit of light, i'd be greatful.

sub write_tag {
    my $self = shift;
    my %args = @_;

    my $mp3 = MP3::Mplib->new($args{mp3}) || return "Unable to update 
+$args{mp3}: $!";

    my @mp3ary = split('/', $args{mp3});

    $mp3->set_v1tag({
                     year   => $args{year}  ,
                     artist => $args{artist},
                     album  => $args{album} ,
                     genre  => $args{genre} ,
                     title  => pop @mp3ary  ,
                   }, &ISO_8859_1);

    my $v1tag = $mp3->get_v1tag;
    return $v1tag;


}

PS, yes i am aware of all the things involved with interacting with the FS via HTTP.

• 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).
