in reply to Struggles with Put in Net::FTP

I see you have turned on debugging, could you show us the output? Are you sure that $input_file and $new_file_name are defined? Use $ftp->message() to get the error message if the $ftp->put() fails.

$ftp->put($somefile, $some_other_file) || die $ftp->message(), "\n";

    Yes, $input_file and $new_file_name are defined. When I do the following:

    print "Input File: $input_file<br>Output File: $new_file_name";
    I get the following output:
    Input File: e:/test/picture.jpg
    Output File: 1108853442.jpg
    Using the code you list $ftp->put($input_file, $new_file_name) || die $ftp->message(), "\n"; I don't get much error, just this, which is pretty worthless except for confirming the line the error is on:
    at /home/auctionb/public_html/cgi-bin/auction/bulklister.pl line 283
    As far as I know it is serverside stuff that controls those errors - stuff I unforunately don't have control over, and my server is unwilling to hook up more detailed error reporting. :( If you know of another way I can force more detailed error reporting without being the server administrator I am all ears! :)
