I'm trying to get CGI->upload() to work with our IIS5 server (and no, we can't just use Apache as we require NTLM authentication), yet it doesn't appear to want to work

The source is pretty much identical to example 5.2 from O'Reilly's CGI programming with Perl, but I've included my bastardised version below:

# No Errors detected
# Deal with the uploaded file
my $filename = $request->param('file');
my $filehandle = $request->upload( $filename );
while( $filename =~ s/(.+)\\(.+)/$2/gi ) {}
unless( $request->cgi_error )
{
# No errors so far

    if( open( FILE, "c:\\temp\\$filename" ) )
    {
        binmode( FILE );
        binmode( $filehandle );
        while( read( $filehandle, $buffer, BUFFER_SIZE ) ) { print FIL
+E $buffer; }
        $shorttitle = "Success : Upload :";
    }
}

It appears that $filehandle is undefined...
