Fellow monks,
I am modifying a script to port it from *nix to IIs. All of the script is in good order as of today except for this file_upload sub. Can anyone advise me as to why I am getting the error: "Undefined subroutine CGI::upload" from this code?
TIA
jg
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use CGI;
use CGI::Carp qw/fatalsToBrowser /;
use CGI ':standard';

my $megabyte = 1024 * 1024;  # bytes
my $max_mb   = 1;     # max no. of MB we will allow

$CGI::DISABLE_UPLOADS = 0;
# CGI module variable for en/disabling uploads (non-zero to disable)
$CGI::POST_MAX = $megabyte * $max_mb;
# CGI module variable for maximum upload size (bytes)

my $q = CGI->new();

my $base_dir = 'D:\\Inetpub\\thissite.org\\';
my $target_dir = "\\alerts\\images\\";
my $base_dom = "http://www.thissite.org/alerts";
my $image_folder="/images/";

The parsing code (not included) checks to see if the upload_file param is defined, and if it is it calls the sub below:

sub file_up {
    local $| = 1;
    my ($bytesread,$buffer,$file);
    my $directory = $base_dir . $target_dir;
    my $fh = $q->upload('upload_file');
    binmode $fh;
    my $filename = $q->param('upload_file');
    $filename =~ s/[^A-Za-z0-9\.\_]//g;

    open(OUTF, '>' . $directory . $filename);
    while ($bytesread = read($fh, $buffer, 1024)) {
        print(OUTF $buffer);
    }
    close(OUTF);

    if (!$file && $q->cgi_error) {
        print($q->header(-status=>$q->cgi_error));
        exit 0;
    }


    $image_link = $base_dom . $image_folder . $filename;
    $image_link;
}
