copying file using Net::SCP module

dear monks,

use Net::SCP qw(scp);

$scp = Net::SCP->new( "155.226.206.195", "metrica");
$scp->get("/apps/inst1/metrica/sample.txt") or die $scp->{errstr};
[download]

I have taken the above code from Net::SCP pod. when I executed the above code, I got the following error message

C:\Antony\Perl>perl l.pl
Died at l.pl line 5.
[download]

help would be appreciated.

So what's on line 5? (You've only shown us 4 lines.) What does this do? `use Net::SCP qw(iscp); iscp("metrica\@155.226.206.195:/apps/inst1/metrica/sample.txt", ".");` [download] (update: escaped @)	[reply] [d/l]

I think that you have the procedural interface confused with the OO interface. Your code mixes the two. It seems that your intent was to use the procedural interface: `use Net::SCP qw(scp);` is procedural---not OO. `$scp = Net::SCP->new( "155.226.205.195", "metrica"); $scp->get("/apps/instl/metrica/sample.txt") or die $scp->{errstr};` [download] ---is OO. I would stick with procedural and take another look at the code that ysth posted.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Does the code run if you change the die to a warn? I'm not really a human, but I play one on earth. Cogito ergo sum a bum	[reply]
