Re^2: cgi and own modules causing unspecified error

yes that's it. Expanding my example now, i get another error "Can't locate object method "new" via package "Hello" (perhaps you forgot to load "Hello"?)"

thats the new code:
Hello-2.pl

#!d:\perl\bin\perl.exe 

use lib 'S:\incubator\ex\Hello.pm';
print"Content-type:text/html;charset=UTF-8\n\n" ;

my $obj = Hello->new( sample_data => 'hello world',
                             more_data   => 'blah blah blah' );
$obj->sample_method();
[download]

Hello.pm

#!d:\perl\bin\perl.exe 

package Hello; #SampleObject;


sub new {
    my ($class, %args) = @_;
    return bless { %args }, $class;
}

sub sample_method {
    my ($self) = @_;
    print $self->{sample_data};
}
1;

Hey amitsq, the following is incorrect: `use lib 'S:\incubator\ex\Hello.pm';` [download] You add the path to the `use lib` pragma, not the file: `use lib 'S:\incubator\ex';` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]

And add `use Hello;` :)	[reply] [d/l]

changed it, but it just looks worse since the error is again : The page cannot be displayed because an internal server error has occurred. current code in hello-2.pl: `#!d:\perl\bin\perl.exe use lib 'S:\incubator\ex'; use Hello; print"Content-type:text/html;charset=UTF-8\n\n" ; my $obj = Hello->new( sample_data => 'hello world', more_data => 'blah blah blah' ); $obj->sample_method();` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

`use lib 'S:\incubator\ex\Hello.pm';` [download] Add the directory in which modules reside, rather than the full path to the module. Also you still need to use it: `use strict; use warnings; use lib '/home/marto/temp'; use Hello; my $obj = Hello->new( sample_data => 'hello world', more_data => 'blah blah blah' ); $obj->sample_method();` [download] Also: lib.

Can't locate object method "new" via package "Hello" (perhaps you forgot to load "Hello"?) The hint is right - you did forget to load "Hello". See use.	[reply]

adding the line `use "Hello"` leads again to the error " The page cannot be displayed because an internal server error has occurred."	[reply] [d/l]

You need to start looking at the error log of the webserver, if you're using CGI consider CGI::Carp. If you are starting from scratch I suggest looking at Mojolicious::Lite rather than CGI, see the documentation of the latter for some reasons why.	[reply]
