in reply to “Non-blocking socket operation” error in LWP::UserAgent package

Any ideas why is it not working, and how it can be fixed?

Standard answer is upgrade your LWP and all its dependencies

You say you have LWP: 6.08 and that is about two years old

After you have upgraded try again and see what happens :)

    According to PPM, these are the newest packages available. :(

      use cpan, cpanp, cpanm, to install modules, esp pure perl modules like LWP

        ActivePerl itself (with its outdated LWP package) seems to be the culprit. Switched to Strawberry Perl and it works like charm. Dumping ActivePerl...
