Perl and Manageability SDK v9.3 apitest.pl issue

[pete_veenbaas]

Greetings - Just started playing with the Neatpp ManageabilitySDK and Perl.

I tried a simple use case of the apitest.pl smple program and am running into the following issue:

[root@svlv6231# pwd
/opt/netapp-manageability-sdk-9.3/src/sample/Data_ONTAP/Perl

root@centosvm# perl apitest.pl cluster01 foo bar system-get-version
Can't locate object method "new" via package "HTTP::Request" (perhaps you forgot to load "HTTP::Request"?) at ../../../../lib/perl/NetApp/NaServer.pm line 722.

Anyone have any idea what this error message means. It appears I have all the required Perl Modules loaded at run time.

Thx in advance!

Hello @pete_veenbaas,

Which dependencies did you install?  When I use the Perl module(s) I install these:

• LWP::UserAgent
• XML::Parser
• Net::SSLeay
• Socket
• Switch

LWP::UserAgent installs, among other things, the HTTP::Request module.

Also, you can see how to create a container based version of the NMSDK here if you're interested.

Hope that helps.

Thx Andrew - I was missing the LWP::Useragent module
