Re^3: Using Perl FTP to write a string variable as a file

Hello again ...

I have tested it with a testscript. It does not work. The error message is:

Cannot open Local file FH: No such file or directory
 at test-ftpscalar.pl line 54
put failed (Passive=1) Type set to I
; localfilename(FH): [d:/Dokumente2/Server2/cgi-bin/out//test-ftpscala
+r.xml], remotefilename: [test-ftpscalar.xml] at test-ftpscalar.pl lin
+e 54.

The script is as follows:

#!/usr/bin/perl

print "Content-type: text/html";
print "<html>\n<head>\n<title>Test FTP Sclar</title>\n</head>\n<body>\

Try using a lexical filehandle `open( my $FH, "<", \$content ) or die "Kann File Handle nicht zum lesen aus content oeffnen"; . . $ftp->put( $FH, $remotefilename ) or die "put failed (Passive=$passive) ", $ftp->message, "; local +filename(FH): [$localfilename], remotefilename: [$remotefilename]"; $ftp->quit; close( $FH );` [download] poj	[reply] [d/l]

Dear poj, many thanks, this works in my test script now. will try to move this to my live script. Thanks again and best regards, Thomas PS: I guess a : `binmode( $FH );` ... after open will be processed correctly	[reply] [d/l]
