Create RSS Feed via iControl (DevCentral sample)
I've tried to get the sample RSS feed generator from DevCentral to work and I'm stuck. The server is Windows 2003. Perl is from ActiveState v5.8.8.819. I added "Crypt-SSLeay v0.51). When I run the NetworkStatus.cgi script from the command line, it connects to my big-ip and spits out 'good' stuff (and writes to the cache directory). When I call the script from a browser or RSS reader, it says the XML can't be displayed with the rss and channel tags not being closed.
I also get the error "[Thu Sep 14 15:56:58 2006] [error] [client 157.209.192.201] 500 Can't locate object method "new" via package "LWP::Protocol::https::Socket" at C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2/cgi-bin/NetworkStatus.cgi line 337".
I can run the /cgi-bin/printenv.pl script that comes with Apache 2.2.
I switched over to IIS just to see what would happen and I get the same error about not being able to locate the object method "NEW" via package LWP::......etc.
I'm pretty sure I have all the normal stuff covered like making sure the server can execute CGI/Perl, the the shebang line !/perl/bin/perl.exe line is set the right way, permissions etc are OK.
Has anyone gotten this to work?
