Re: LWP::UserAgent error Unexpected keys

Just say not to typing effort http://www.perlmeme.org/tutorials/lwp.html

use WWW::Mechanize, its everything you wanted LWP to be

Same program with less typing

#!/usr/bin/perl --
use strict; use warnings;
use WWW::Mechanize 1.73;
my $ua = WWW::Mechanize->new( autocheck => 1 );
$ua->show_progress(1);
$ua->get( 'http://perl-tutorial.org/' );
print $ua->content;
__END__
** GET http://perl-tutorial.org/ ==> 200 OK (1s)

Hi, sorry to say, but Mechanize uses LWP::UserAgent under the bonnet as far as I can gather. So the net result remains the same. `use WWW::Mechanize; my $mech = WWW::Mechanize->new( autocheck => 1 ); $mech->get($url); if ( $mech->success() ) { print $mech->content,"\n"; } else { print "status is: " . $mech->status,"\n"; }` [download] Returns `try_web_again.pl Error GETing http://perlmeme.org/tutorials/lwp.html: Unexpected keys - + LocalHost at /home/bill/bin/try_web_again.pl line 15` [download] Also, according to cpan...

sorry to say, but Mechanize uses LWP::UserAgent under the bonnet as far as I can gather. Yes, thats the point, its less typing. Autocheck dies on errors, like you witnessed. No setting up a cookiejar, no saving responses... less typing is less typing :) So it seems thast I have the latest LWP .. That isn't exactly convincing :) LWP has many dependencies, upgrade all of them :) You could tty `perl -MCarp::Always yourprog.pl` for a stack trace to narrow down which IO::Socket... module is complaining, which module needs specific updating Probably IO::Socket::IP and IO::Socket::SSL	[reply] [d/l]
