Need Help??

in reply to sending a large file via http

A quick scan of the docs for LWP and HTTP::Message didn't turn up anything useful. You may need some other tool to stream large files. wget has a --post-file option that looks like it might work better, but I haven't tried it myself.

Similar to `wget`, cURL is an efficient C executable with options for POST upload via both content types `application/x-www-form-urlencoded` and `multipart/form-data`, and also supports HTTP compression. You can build a command line for `system()`, or use the libcurl's Perl interface module WWW::Curl. Available for Linux and Win32, and pre-installed on OS X. I use cURL every day!
