I'm totally new to perl and I'm trying to modify some code that's being moved from a Unix to a Windows box. I am triggering a perl script from within a JSP. The intent is to open a different webpage. I know there are better ways to do that, but I need the capability to run a perl script and depending on the outcome open a webpage.
#!c:\perl\bin\perl.exe use strict; #use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser); use CGI; use warnings; my $query= new CGI; #print "HTTP/1.0 200 OK\n"; print "Content-Type: text/html\n\n\n"; print $query->redirect('http://localhost/rbsaws/');
The output I get is "Status: 302 Found Location: http://localhost/rbsaws/ " instead of the webpage I hoped for. I get the same result when running it from the command line. I've tried different variations on the above code found elsewhere with no improvement. I'd appreciate any suggestions you might provide.
