Sorry, I don't use Win much. That worked for me on Linux.
also, instead of using LOCAL_FILE
I used chdir builtin function (2 different ways to do it). see next code
(includes those 2 different ways to do it) it downloads 3 small html files from a
CPAN mirror site. Might be easier just to chdir to the dir where you want the
file to be saved (since it saves in C-urrent W-orking D-irectory if given no
specification otherwise).
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use Net::FTP;
use Cwd;
my $ch_dir = '/home/al/tmp2';
print "cur_dir is:\n";
print cwd, "\n\n";
chdir( $ch_dir ) or die "Cant chdir to $ch_dir $!";
print "cur_dir is:\n";
print cwd, "\n";
my $ftp = Net::FTP->new("cpan.mirrors.tds.net", Debug => 0)
or die "Cannot connect to some.host.name: $@";
$ftp->login("anonymous",'-anonymous@')
or die "Cannot login ", $ftp->message;
$ftp->cwd("/pub/CPAN")
or die "Cannot change working directory ", $ftp->message;
my @files=$ftp->ls
or die "Cannot open the directory",$ftp->message;
# print @files, "\n\n";
print "-------------------------------------------------\n";
print "Here are \@files:\n";
foreach ( @files ) {
print $_, "\n";
}
print "-------------------------------------------------\n";
print "Here are readme\*:\n";
foreach ( @files ) {
print $_, "\n" if /readme/i;
}
print "-------------------------------------------------\n";
my $localdir = '/home/al/tmp2/';
my @got_list;
print "Here are get\/got list:\n";
foreach ( @files ) {
chomp;
if ( /(^rea|^si|^di).*\.html/i ) { # get these
push @got_list, $_;
# use either but not both of the next two lines
$ftp->get($_) or die "get failed ", $ftp->message;
# $ftp->get($_, "$localdir$_") or die "get failed ", $ftp->message;
}
}
print @got_list, "\n";
# end
