Debugging Mech,LWP...
Here is a good way to debug request->responses that are going between LWP and the web server.

use Aspect;
my $pcut = call qr/LWP::UserAgent::send_request/;
before {
    my $ctx = shift;
    print "req================\n";
    print $ctx->params->[1]->as_string;

} $pcut;

after {
    my $ctx = shift;
    print "resp----------------\n";
    print $ctx->return_value->headers->as_string;
    print "==================\n";
} $pcut;

use WWW::Mechanize;
my $m = WWW::Mechanize->new;
$m->get("http://www.google.com");

You can use $c->return_value->as_string, if u want to get the content of the response too. And of course you need to install Aspect.pm module ;)

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
• Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
