Hello all,
I use WWW::Mechanize to upload files to a secured server. The upload works randomly. Many a times when the files are > 100KB (approx) the upload fails and i am getting the following error: 2304. Upon trying to shft this error number 8 times twice, i found that the error coded is 9 and it points to "EBADF: Bad file descriptor"

Has any one faced this before? I am unable to fix this issue can anyone help me in this regard?

below is the code snippet 


#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use WWW::Mechanize;
use HTTP::Cookies;
use File::Copy;
#use other interl modules;

$file_path=$script_path.$exportpath;

#opendir(DH,"$file_path");
#readDIR
#Setting Env PROXY details
# Create a cookie
$cookie_jar = HTTP::Cookies->new(file => "$cookie",autosave => 1);
$mechanize_obj = WWW::Mechanize->new(autocheck => 1);
$mechanize_obj->proxy(https => undef);
$mechanize_obj->proxy(http => undef);
$mechanize_obj->credentials($loginid => $password);
my $response;
eval
{
    $response =$mechanize_obj->get($loginurl);
};
if ($@) 
{      #Log Error      
      exit 0;
}
# Store the login response
eval
{
    $login_response = $mechanize_obj->response();
};
if ($@) 
{
      #Log Error
      exit 0;
}
$cookie_jar->extract_cookies($login_response);
# save the cookie
$cookie_jar->save(); 
$mechanize_obj->cookie_jar($cookie_jar);

# Process each csv files present in the export folder
foreach $file(@files_found)
{
    $export_file = $file_path."/".$file;
    # automate the web upload
    $mechanize_obj->get($uploadurl);
    $mechanize_obj->form_number(1);
    $mechanize_obj->set_fields(theFile => $export_file);
    $mechanize_obj->submit();
    $data=$mechanize_obj->content();
    # Write the response content into the upload file
    &Logs::WriteMessage($data,3);    
    if($mechanize_obj->success)
    {
        # move the processed files
        $status=move("$export_file","$script_path.$pross_exportcsv");
        if($status ne 1){#Log Error        
        }        
    }
    else{#Log Error
    }
}

I have this as a seperate PERL file and calling this from another PERL file using system call because my base PERL scripts run via RATLPERL (rational perl)

Thanks in advance
