Hi,

Have you tried getting the script to write the file to disk

Yes

can this file be retrieved by the clients correctly?

Yes, I've written that file to the /tmp-Dir, copied it to the HTTPD-root-directory accessed it directly and could download it just fine.

have you tried having the script simultaniously write a copy of the file and return it to the client?

No, I am using the following code:

my $tar = Archive::Tar->new; # ... # in a loop: $tar->add_files("$filename"); # ... my $data = $tar->write(); print $q->header(-type => 'application/octet-stream', -attachment => "edi.tar"); print $data;
And remember: it works fine on two out of three machines. That is what makes me wonder so much.

Regards... Stefan
you begin bashing the string with a +42 regexp of confusion

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
