I am having a problem with a Perl routine that was working for years under 5.08. We recently upgraded to 5.14 and our HTTP calls are failing (OK, not failing, just not working as they did. Code snippet below.
my $url = "https://site.company.com/javaprog.jsp"; print LOGFILE localtime()."Url Value: *".$url."*\n"; my $request = HTTP::Request->new(GET => $url); my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new; $ua->protocols_allowed( [ 'http', 'https'] ); my $response = $ua->request($request); if ($response->is_success) { print LOGFILE localtime()."\tSuccessfully initiated cache +reload via $url\n"; } else { $warningCnt++; $warningMsg=$warningMesg||" Unable to remove $filename fro +m $sshHost\n"; print LOGFILE localtime()."\tWARNING: Unable to intiate +cache refresh via $url\n"; print LOGFILE localtime()."\t\tDEBUG: $response \n"; }

The result being output to the log is: DEBUG: HTTP::Response=HASH(0x2cd1ae0)

I confess newness to Perl so please be gentle.
