Perl LWP Module

[sretlaw]

I am having problems getting the PERL LWP modules (Simple and UserAgent) working with Plesk 8.1 when the url I am trying to grab is on the Plesk server. Basically, I'm trying to grab the output from a PERL script on one name-based domain on the server, to use in a PERL script at a second name-based domain on the same server. This worked in previous versions of Plesk.

The LWP modules work fine when the url I'm trying to grab is on a different server.

The LWP modules also seem to work when I use IP-based hosting in Plesk, but this causes me some other problems, so I'd rather not do that.

I'm not sure if this a firewall issue (and how/if it can be fixed) or if it is another configuration problem.

Thanks for your help.

LWP Problem Solved

Figured it out...

1. Must use full url, including "www" prefix

2. Can't grab a page that is being redirected

For some reason, both of these conditions worked in Plesk 7.
