I too get `http://www.eserve.com.sa/ --> 302 Moved Temporarily` its normal, website redirects to https, then does a html (refresh) redirect to special/changing url. Makes sense, if you trust HTTPS, you can trust the new url.	[reply] [d/l]

I didn't get the line: die sprintf "ERRRR(%d)(%s)(%d)(%s)", $!,$!,$^E,$^E; Nor did I get it to work, putting it in as the last line of my code. ERRRR(9)(Bad file descriptor)(0)() at C:\SCRIPTING\URLTESTv6.pl line 22. As for these redirected websites, the one in question http://www.eserve.com.sa is HTTP. In any case, should I conclude that redirection isn't supported. In that case I'll need to hardcode the eventual address.	[reply]

At the end of your code its too late. You're supposed to get more info about which Unknown Error it is. Try #!/usr/bin/perl -- use strict; use warnings; use LWP::UserAgent 5.829; @ARGV = qw[ http://www.eserve.com.sa/ ]; my $url = shift or die "URL expected\n"; my $useragent = LWP::UserAgent->new; $useragent->proxy(['http', 'ftp','https'], 'http://192.168.5.39:8080/' +); $useragent -> timeout( 20 ); my $request = HTTP::Request->new( GET => $url ); my $response = $useragent->request($request); my $err = sprintf "(%d)(%s)(%d)(%s)\n", $!,$!,$^E,$^E; print $useragent->proxy('http'),"\n"; print "Err : $err\n"; print $response->dump,"\n"; __END__ lwp-request -useUS -m head http://www.eserve.com.sa/ lwp-request -useUS -m get http://www.eserve.com.sa/ [download] The number of possible unknown errors is huge (goes into 11_000), to see some run `for my $i( 0 .. 256 ){ # $! = $i; $^E = $i; printf "(%d)(%s)(%d)(%s)\n", $!,$!,$^E,$^E; }` [download] As for these redirected websites, the one in question http://www.eserve.com.sa is HTTP. Which always redirects to the HTTPs version. In any case, should I conclude that redirection isn't supported. No.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Add this to your code `die sprintf "ERRRR(%d)(%s)(%d)(%s)", $!,$!,$^E,$^E;` [download] that should give you better idea of exact error (LWP should include this)	[reply] [d/l]
