Re^4: replace use HTTP::Lite to run a perl file that was on another server

As a lark try this

my $all=get_response("copyorders_multiple.pl", "refID=".&trim($license
+));
my ($data)=$all=~/\n\n(.*)$/s; 
sub get_response {
  local %ENV=%ENV; 
  my ($cgi, $CMD) = @_;
 
  ## prepare proper (CGI) environment
  $ENV{QUERY_STRING} = $CMD;
  $ENV{REQUEST_METHOD} = 'GET';
  $ENV{GATEWAY_INTERFACE} = 'CGI/1.1';
  # add more as needed
  open(CGI, "$cgi |") or die "Can't exec $cgi, $!";
  local $/ = undef;
  my $res = <CGI>;
  close(CGI) or die "Error running $cgi, $!";
  return $res;
}

it that doesnt work please answer the following What happens if you go to http://newserver/newpath/copyorders_multiple.pl?refID=somevalidrefid how did copyorders_multiple.pl get on/to the new server Have you checked the executable settings on copyorders_multiple.pl how does copyorders_multiple.pl deal with refID=".trim($license), how are you sure that any required resources or datasets needed by copyorders_multiple.pl are also on the new server? Was the old server a windows machine and the new server a unix or mac machine? if so http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7858987/apache-2-throws-no-such-file-or-directory-exec-of-usr-lib-cgi-bin-fst-cgi may solve your problem. There are more problems that could exist, but without the error.log entries it is hard to predict	[reply]
