To me it appears that you have not written anything to your tmp
file... Which would explain the empty $output.
Usually temp file creators open in read/write mode.
So if you say something like
($name,$fh) = Apache::File->tmpfile;
print $fh "Hello World";
seek($fh,0,0);
my $line = <$fh>;
print $line;
It should print "Hello World";
