Hi there,
I'm writing a module SRU::Client and like a good boy, I wrote a test script
(using Test::More). I couldn't figure out why the test script would run on one
machine, but not on another, until I found that the machine it wouldn't run on
had the HTTP_PROXY set. When I unset that variable in the shell, the script
works, but I cannot for the life of me unset HTTP_PROXY in the script itself.
Things that don't work:
undef $ENV{HTTP_PROXY}
Try:
delete $ENV{HTTP_PROXY};
I did. No joy.
perl -MLWP::Simple -e 'delete $ENV{HTTP_PROXY}; print
get("http://www.google.co.uk";)'
doesn't work, but
unset HTTP_PROXY; perl -MLWP::Simple -e 'print
get("http://www.google.co.uk";)'
does work.
I'd also tried deleting or undefing http_proxy as well. Keep the
suggestions coming.
thanks,
