Re^2: Bad hostname

I agree with you that the format of the typical LWP response is something like you have just stated. But the error message that I am forwarding in my posts is the status_line of the response object, not that of the user agent object.

Far from me the idea of wasting your time (and mine) by faking the messages... I just copied and pasted them.

Anycase I've disabled SELinux and the problem has been solved. But now another problem arises: should I leave SELinux disabled ???

Thanks for taking the time to respond to me. A.

the error message that I am forwarding in my posts is the status_line of the response object, not that of the user agent object. You are mistaken. It's LWP::UserAgent that places the error in the status line (after being generated by LWP::Protocol::http). That is how LWP reports errors. So yes, we were on the same page. Maybe older versions of LWP had different messages, sorry. Update: It would have to be a very old version. Older than libwww-perl-5.800, released on June 15th, 2004. That's the earliest version currently on CPAN.	[reply]
