I am trying out HTML::Template for the first time and used the script and template given in it's POD.

Template from HTML::Template POD:

<html>
<head>
  <title>Test Template</title>
</head>
<body>
  <p>My Home Directory is <TMPL_VAR NAME=HOME></p>
  <p>My Path is set to <TMPL_VAR NAME=PATH></p>
</body>
</html>
[download]

Accompanying Script:

#!/usr/bin/perl -wT
use HTML::Template;

# open the html template
my $template = HTML::Template->new(filename => 'test.tmpl');

# fill in some parameters
$template->param(HOME => $ENV{HOME});
$template->param(PATH => $ENV{PATH});

# send the obligatory Content-Type and print the template output
print "Content-Type: text/html\n\n", $template->output;
[download]

This resulted in the following error:

Can't locate object method "isa" via package "Cwd" at base.pm line 56.

I'm using the latest ActivePerl core for Windows and publishing to a remote web server that requires me to upload all of the necessary modules and perl scripts to a directory "/cgi-bin". Since it works fine on my local server, my guess is that I am missing a module(s) on the remote web server.

Any help with this problem would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance for your help,

Anne

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.


Do you know where your variables are?
