Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting stuck in perl cgi to upload a file to server Post 75444 by cbkihong on Saturday 18th of June 2005 09:58:22 AM

Normally that should be it. Because what upload() returns is a filehandle you should be able to read it right away (provided a valid filehandle is returned). But now obviously the filehandle is undef. That was why I tried to make the guess that probably your temporary directory could not be written into, and so cannot be open()ed so no valid filehandle is returned.

Try this. Log the output of

$q->cgi_error

as the program proceeds. See if you get any error messages before or around the upload() method.

NAME
cgi_destroy - deallocate the data associated with a CGI SYNOPSIS
#include <cgi/cgi.h> void cgi_destroy (CGI **cgi); ARGUMENTS
cgi - a pointer to a pointer to a CGI struct DESCRIPTION
cgi_destroy will destroy all the data associated with a CGI, which mostly means the associated HDF and removal of any files that were uploaded via multipart/form-data. (Note that even in the event of a crash, these files will be deleted, as they were unlinked on creation and only exist because of the open file pointer) RETURN VALUE
