«HTTP::Message content must be bytes» error when trying to post
- by ZyX
I have the following code:
...
sub setImage {
my $self=shift;
my $filename=shift;
unless(-r $filename) {
warn "File $filename not found";
return;
}
my $imgn=shift;
my $operation=&URI::Escape::uri_escape_utf8(
(shift) ? "???????! (Delete)" : "?????????! (Store)");
my $FH=&::File::open($filename, 0, 0);
my $image;
# &utf8::downgrade($image);
sysread($FH, $image, 102400, 0);
close $FH;
my $imginfo=eval{&Image::Info::image_info(\$image)};
if($@ or $imginfo->{"error"}) {
warn "Invalid image: ".($@ || $imginfo->{"error"});
return undef;
}
my $fields=[
DIR => $self->url("fl"),
OPERATION => $operation,
FILE_NAME => ".photo$imgn",
# FILE => [$filename],
FILE => [undef, "image.".$imginfo->{"file_ext"},
# Content_Type => $imginfo->{"file_media_type"},
# Content_Type => 'application/octet-stream',
Content => $image,
],
];
my $response=&ZLR::UA::post(
&ZLR::UA::absURL("/cgi-bin/file_manager")."",
$fields,
Content_Type => "form-data",
);
print $response->decoded_content;
}
...
When I try to use function setImage it fails with error HTTP::Message content must be bytes at /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/HTTP/Request/Common.pm line 91. Worse that I can't reproduce this error without using all of my code and upgrading libwww-perl does nothing. What can cause it?
