Hello, Dear fellow Monks This is my 2nd question regarding this script, which originally didn't run because of an unavailable perl module UserAgent.pm. My webhost has now, with a lot kicking and screaming, installed this module. Unfortunately the script still doesn't run. Question: Could there be anything wrong with the script which, on another server, ran flawless? (there are no longer any fault messages displayed by carp, unlike before, with the perl module "saga".
#!/usr/bin/perl use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser); open(W, "weather.js"); @lines = <W>; close(W); $out = join('', @lines); if (scalar(@lines) < 3 or -M "weather.js" > 0.25) { use LWP::UserAgent; $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new(); $ua->timeout(60); $request = HTTP::Request->new('GET', 'http://www.bom.gov.au/cgi-bin/wr +ap_fwo.pl?IDS10034.txt'); $res = $ua->request($request); if ($res->is_error) { $str = $res->message; } else { $str = $res->content; } $str =~ s/^.*IDS1003401//s; $str =~ s/HEADLINE.*?$//s; if ($str =~ /:\s+(.*?)\n\n/s) { $adeldesc = $1; $adeldesc =~ s/\n//g; } if ($str =~ /Adelaide City\s+(.*?)\s+Max\s+(\d+)/s) { $adelmax = $2; } if ($str =~ /Noarlunga\s+(.*?)\s+Max\s+(\d+)/s) { $norlmax = $2; } $out =<<EOF; var adeldesc = "$adeldesc"; var adelmax = "$adelmax"; var norlmax = "$norlmax"; EOF open(W, ">weather.js"); print W $out; close(W); } print <<EOF; Content-Type: text/x-javascript Pragma: no-cache Cache-Control: no-cache Expires: -1 $out EOF
