On line 27 %$result should be %{ $result }.

Why?

$ perl -le '
> $h = {a => 1, b => 2};
> print for sort keys %$h;'
a
b
$

I don't know how it happened, but the Sudo.pm is wrong, this code is wrong :

%ret = {
         'error' => (sprintf 'Error: the sudo binary "%s" is not set t
+o group id = 0',$sudo)
       };
       return \%ret;
[download]

So I changed manually the code to return the correct info like this:

$ret = {
         'error' => (sprintf 'Error: the sudo binary "%s" is not set t
+o group id = 0',$sudo)
       };
       return $ret;
[download]

Now it is giving me the correct error information. But the actual script seems to be not running. Here is the test.sh file info :

echo hello
echo something >> /tmp/testfile
[download]

I haven't seen hello in the display OR the file /tmp/testfile has not been created. The "result" code is 256, what does it mean.

Normaly you would do my $realexitcode = $exitcode >> 8;, assuming that Sudo.pm uses system to execute sudo -- in this case this is 1. Looking into sudos man-page:

RETURN VALUES Upon successful execution of a program, the return value from sudo will simply be the return value of the program that was executed. Otherwise, sudo quits with an exit value of 1 if there is a configuration/permission problem or if sudo cannot execute the given command.
