Re^3: LWP::UserAgent not finishing get requests?

Look at the code I pasted. No matter what the object contains, $response->as_string will always return something. And by your own testimony, is_success returns true so it's not empty.

Well it looks like I'm the idiot here. :( I just did another as_string since you're right it REALLY shouldn't be empty. It did in fact contain the headers and then this `X-Died: Can't locate HTML/HeadParser.pm in @INC` Looks like that's the problem. I _swear_ on my sanity (yikes) that as_string returned blank yesterday. Maybe I'm dilusional... Thanks, and sorry for wasting your time! EDIT: Well at least I'm not a total idiot ;) I did in fact have the HeadParser module installed, but apparently it was broken because I just reinstalled it and everything works as expected. I hate computers...	[reply] [d/l]
