Perl scripting a form return???

Hello all.
I'm completely new to perl scripting and am trying to find somewhere that will help me understand how to write a script which will return data from a form on my website to an e-mail address. There are a lot of websites out there which offer free scripts to download but since I don't understand perl yet I'd rather not use one of them since I don't understand what it is I'm using and whether it's going to give me the desired results.
Any help anyone can give me would be excellent!
Regards

This page has a section on sending an email with Perl. It looks like a pretty good tutorial to me, though I didn't try it. If you get stuck post back and I'll try to help out...

Execute Perl Script from Forms

Ji all, is there a way to execute a Perl Script out of Forms beside WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT ?

Depends on where the script should be executed. If its on the application-server and you can wrap it into a shell-script, then you can also use HOST.

Calling the DTExec from Perl Script and need to get the Return Value (Sucess or Failure)

I am able to execute the SSIS Package from Perl Script using DTExec. But i need to get the return code of the SSIS Execution. Is their any option available to get the Success or Failure information from Perl ?

Exit codes returned from dtexec utility
When a package runs, dtexec can return an exit code. The exit code is used to populate the ERRORLEVEL variable, the value of which can then be tested in conditional statements or branching logic within a batch file. The following table lists
the values that the dtexec utility can set when exiting.

There's a wrinkle if the package is running in the SSIS Catalog:

JSP execute a Perl script

I want to call a Perl script from my JSP page, but how if I want to return some values from the Perl script back to the JSP page?

Well let's say you were calling the perl script from another perl script, how would you "return" the values? Normally this is done by doing form submits or using url parameters.

How to launching a perl script by the "begin" script of a jumpstart

Hi all,
i have an urgent pb with my solaris jumpstart, let me explain to you :
i want that the begin script launch some perl script, but i have a problem
here is my "begin" script:
echo "Begining ISO FLAR based jumpstart."
echo ""
echo "Starting Ullink Configuration"
env > /tmp/env
/bin/sh << EOF
/usr/bin/perl /cdrom/.archives/admin-scripts/sethostname.pl
EOFmy perl script use a STDIN
with this configuration, the perl script is launching but it runs in a loop indefinitely with an error "use of uninitialized value", because (i think) a value is return to the begin scritp and not to the perl script.
well, on a pre-installed solaris, if a launch the begin script, it happens the same thing, it runs in a loop, BUT if i comment the line "/bin/sh <<EOF" and "EOF", it works.
at this step, i say "ok it's cool my script is working", but when i use it during the jumpstart instalaltion, the perl script does not start, without any particular error.
here is my perl script, if you want to test :

Runtime.exec("Perl Script writing and reading on I/O"), handling Streams

Hi all !!
In a first place : sorry for my english if it's not really understandable but I try to do as good as possible !
I'm writing a GUI with Swing that will allow (in one of my multiple tables) the user to run a Perl Script.
This Perl Script ask the user to choose a Folder ... then read all the files in this folder and for each file (xml File), extract the datas and put them in a database. But when a file that has to be inserted in the database contains this line : <Template_Used name="ST1.mtt"> and if the Template table in my database doesn't have the "ST1.mtt" stored ... the Perl Script ask to the user to give him the path of the file "ST1.mtt" so that the script can put the "ST1.mtt template" datas in the database.
This script runs well when it is from a windows console.
But I need a graphic interface !!!
So I created a JButton "Process a folder".
When the button is pressed, a JFileChooser appears and ask the user which Folder has to be processed.
Then a Process is created with the command : ("cmd.exe /C \"C:\\Program Files\\Fluke\\Ansur\\ProcessFolder.bat\").
The BatFile :
{code}cd C:\Documents and Settings\tsd\Desktop\Gael-Project\Project_Files
perl Process.pl
exit{code}
At this moment everything is working well.
But my Process.pl (which is 300 lines long ... and that you don't even want to hear about), ask in a first time the Path of the folder to process and sometimes ask the path to a file (a template file).
So I need to read and wirte on the STDIN/STDOUT during the exec of the Process.
In order to handle this I created two different threads : one reading the Process.getInputStream with a BufferedReader and one other writing on the Process.getOutputStream with a PrintWrinter.
What I need to do is :
When I read a line from the InputStream saying "I need the path of the ST1.mtt file", I should run a JFileChooser ... the user find the file in the computer ... and I write in the OutputStream the path of the file, so that my Perl Script doesn't have un Unitialised value on <STDIN> and can continue to process !!
I'm pretty sure it's possible ... because at the moment I just used a trick :
When the user push the "process a folder" button, I write the paths in the OutputStream before than the script needs it and it works !
But I need to write in the OutputStream only when it is time !!!
Any idea ??
Here are some parts of my code :
{code}
String filename = File.separator+"tmp";
          JFileChooser fc = new JFileChooser(new File(filename));
          fc.setFileSelectionMode(JFileChooser.DIRECTORIES_ONLY );
          // Show open dialog; this method does not return until the dialog is closed
     fc.showOpenDialog(null);
     Folder = fc.getSelectedFile();
          new GoodExec(cmd);
{code}
{code}
public class GoodExec {
     public static Process proc;
     public static StreamGobbler errorGobbler;
     public static StreamGobbler inputGobbler;
     public static StreamGobbler outputGobbler;
     public GoodExec(String cmd)
     try
               Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
          proc = rt.exec(cmd);
     // any error message?
     errorGobbler = new
     StreamGobbler(proc.getErrorStream(), "ERROR");
     // any input?
     inputGobbler = new
     StreamGobbler(proc.getInputStream(), "INPUT");
     // any output?
          outputGobbler = new
          StreamGobbler(proc.getOutputStream(), "OUTPUT");
     // kick them off
     errorGobbler.start();
     inputGobbler.start();
     outputGobbler.start();
     // any error???
     int exitVal = proc.waitFor();
     System.out.println("ExitValue: " + exitVal);
     } catch (Throwable t)
     t.printStackTrace();
{code}
{code}
public class StreamGobbler implements Runnable
InputStream is;
OutputStream os;
String type;
Thread thread;
public static String chaine;
StreamGobbler(InputStream is, String type)
this.is = is;
this.os=null;
this.type = type;
StreamGobbler(OutputStream os, String type)
this.os = os;
this.is=null;
this.type = type;
public void start () {
     thread = new Thread(this);
     thread.start ();
public void run()
try
if (is == null){
     PrintWriter toProgram = new PrintWriter(os);
     File FolderToProcess = ProcessFolder.Folder;
String Folder = FolderToProcess.getPath();
toProgram.write(Folder);
toProgram.close();
else {
     if (os == null){
     InputStreamReader isr = new InputStreamReader(is);
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(isr);
String line=null;
String comp = "Please enter the exact path of the directory that contains the files you want to process.";
while ( (line = br.readLine()) != null){
     if (type.equals("INPUT")){
          chaine+=line+"\n";
     if (line.equals(comp)) {
          System.out.println("give directory");RUN A JFILECHOOSER AND GIVE THE DIRECTORY TO THE OUTPUTSTREAM
System.out.println(type + ">" + line);
is.close ();
catch (IOException ioe){
     ioe.printStackTrace();
{code}
And here is an example of a simple perl script that could be used (it s a simple one !!) :
{code}
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
print "Please enter the exact path of the directory that contains the files you want to process.\n";
my $dir= <STDIN>;
chomp ($dir);
print "titallala $dir";
if (the template of the file is not in the database){
print "Please give me the template so that I can put it in the database";
$dir= <STDIN>;
chomp ($dir);
{code}
Thank you for your help ... if it's possible to help me !!

BalusC -- The line that gives me my NullPointerException is when I call the "DisplayProduct()" method. Its a dumb question, but with NetBeans how do I find out which reference could be null? I'm not very familiar with how NetBeans works with finding out how to debug. Any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated.The IDE is com-plete-ly irrelevant. It's all about the source code.
Do you understand anyway when and why a NullPointerException is been thrown? It is a subclass of RuntimeException and those kind of exceptions are very trival and generally indicate an design/logic/thinking fault in your code.
SomeObject someObject = null; // The someObject reference is null.
someObject.doSomething(); // Invoking a reference which is null would throw NPE.

Perl script not rendering values

I have a perl script that runs a form submission and sends me an email after user completes the form.
Once I get the mail, i see the form fields BUT I do not see the values that the user would enter.
Here is a snippet:
print MAIL "...If Contractor, employed by: $FORM{'Contractor_Employer'}\n";
print MAIL "...If Visitor, employed by: $FORM{'Visitor_Employer'}\n";
print MAIL "...If Reporting unsafe condition or other safety related issue:\n";
print MAIL "$FORM{'Unsafe_Conditions'}\n";
print MAIL "\n";
print MAIL "IDENTIFICATION DETAILS\n";
print MAIL "...Full Name of Injured: $FORM{'NameInjured'}\n";
print MAIL "...Job Title: $FORM{'JobTitle'}\n";
print MAIL "...Date Hired: $FORM{'DateHired'}-$FORM{'DHMonth'}-$FORM{'YearHired'} \n";
print MAIL "...Gender: $FORM{'Gender'}\n";
print MAIL "...Manager's Name: $FORM{'Emp_Manager
any ideas?

My idea would be: debug it.
Your post had so little technical information so I can't be more specific, sorry.

Grid Control Perl Scripts Causing 100% CPU

I have a Grid installation on a cluster of three databases. It periodically shows that the CPU is at 100%. When I check, it is a number of Perl scripts that are executed by the agent.
Killing the Perl scripts returns CPU usage back to normal. The operating system is Red Hat, and the databases and clusterware Oracle 10.2.0.4.
Anyone have experience with this. I've looked on Metalink, but haven't seen anything.
Thanks,
John

I nearly fell off my chair laughing at the ludicrous suggestion of bouncing the box!!!
When you say: Grid installation on a cluster of three databases
What do you mean?!
Grid control monitoring 3 rac databases?
Grid control with a rac database as its repository?
Version of Grid control?!

I'm trying to execute and possibly terminate a PERL script from Labview.

I am currently using the system exec.vi to run my perl script. I would like to be able to terminate it as well. Any suggestion?
I'm running from windows xp.

Try looking at http://www.jeffreytravis.com/lost/labperl.html
The download (LabPerl) gives you comms between Labview ' Perl and viceversa.
And doesn't take too long to fathom out how it all works.
The perl program is set running (manually or by labview command window - don't wait for completion) followed by labview control etc.
N.B.
Each labview write string requires a Linefeed - then chomp at perl end
The secret is to have a good handshake method - each LabView read returns to perl an "ok"

error executing perl /home/deaddev/test1.pl

As and alternative you can useString cmd123 = "perl /home/deaddev/test1.pl";Using the single string approach YOU have to do any quoting so with this line no quoting takes place and the script /home/deaddev/test1.pl will be executed.Although that should be true apparently it isn't. I have just run
Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("perl /home/sabre/work/dev/perl/xxx.pl");
new Thread(new SyncPipe(p.getErrorStream(), System.err)).start();
new SyncPipe(p.getInputStream(), System.out).run();
int returnCode = p.waitFor();
System.out.println("Return code = " + returnCode);which correctly executes the perl script xxx.pl.
P.S. SyncPipe is a Runnable that copies an InputStream to an OutputStream.

Interesting! Even though Runtime.exec() works with a single String, ProcessBuilder fails with this approach! You have to split the argument string. This certainly looks like a bug! Some while ago I looked at the source for Runtime.exec() to look at the differences between Runtime.exec() and ProcessBuilder and found that behind the scenes Runtime.exec() uses ProcessBuilder.
More research is required.

I can't currently use my script because of this and it is very crucial for me.
Anyone has any idea why this is happening?
Thanks in advance!

Etresoft, Yes you are correct I did post the same link. Sorry that I did not notice it. However, as Gajillion also noted in his post, it is a kernel timing/race condition bug and NOT a 3rd party extension bug and can only be fixed by Apple. There is nothing someone can practically do to workaround the issue.
My suggestion for everyone having this issue is to entering a case into Apple's bug tracking system, and every time you get the error also be sure that you allow the reporter app to send the info to Apple.
No one is having this issue. The only people who have reported it have extensive 3rd party software installations. I have never seen a Perl-induced kernel panic on my Mac and I do some really crazy things with Perl - SOAP servers routed through launcd with my own transport protocols. No panics.
You are free to send in any panic or bug reports to Apple, should they arise. But I am quite confident that anyone encoutering such a problem really can't be said to be running OS X anymore. Once you make that many modifications, it is some hybrid Linux-style monster. And yes, such things panic if you look at them the wrong way - just like Linux.

Perl script to read 3750 stack

Hi Folks,
I am aware that much of the discussion is LMS specific here but just wanted to get some inputs with regards to a perl script that i am working with. The basic idea of the script is to get the serial numbers of the individual switches in the stack and report. To just test this I tried it on a single stack switch, i used the oid 1.3.6.1.2.1.47.1.1.1.1.11.X( X for the index)(entPhysicalSerialNum). But its just returning an empty string. I did try some of the other fields in the same container and some seem to return results like say the description is returning C37XX switch stack. So, I belive that the script is not broken. Please let me know if the oid is correct or an aliter to the same oid.
thanks,
Prakadeesh

This OID is correct. You need to get the value of entPhysicalSerialNum for entities which correspond to chassis elements. For example, walk the values for entPhysicalClass. For each entPhysicalIndex which is chassis(3), get the value of entPhysicalSerialNum. You should have non-empty values.

In Web Server 6.0 during the execution of a Perl Script, the software send the error "Cannot execute CGI script......unable to sewt group".

Hi Pablo,
Its bcos Your web server has been misconfigured. It doesn't know that it should execute your Perl program, so it's just returning the error to the browser.
Assuming that u use solaris 2.8. Generally the path for the perl in solaris is #!/usr/bin/perl .make sure u have included this in ur first line of the perl programs.[if not enter the exact location of the perl interpretor]
Now follow these steps:
*First Part
First create a cgi folder mycgi-bin( follow this example please) say u create mycgi in /usr folder (solaris). so the path becomes '/usr/mycgi-bin'. set
appropriate permissions say set chmod to 755. to make it executable. Then
(1)Goto Programs tab in IWS (iplanet web server) .
(2)choose cgi-directory drom left frame.
(3)CGI Directory Add another CGI Directory
URL prefix: mycgi-bin
CGI directory: /usr/mycgi-bin
(4) click 'OK' and click 'apply' to save changes and restart the server.
* Second Part:
1.In the Server Administrator, click Server preferences, then select 'MIME Types' from the frame on the left.
2.If you want to use .pl as the extension for Perl scripts, find and remove the application/x-perl MIME type (this is mapped to .pl by default). (remove it).
3.Add a new MIME Type with 'magnus-internal/mycgi-bin' (type this exactly ie magnus-internal/cgidirectory url prefix) as the Content Type, and pl as the File Suffix.
4.Save and apply these changes, then re-start the server.
5 .Put a sample perl file in mycgi-bin directory say sample.pl and access http://yourserver:port/mycgi-bin/sample. pl
*If you are having trouble running Perl scripts on your iPlanet server, check the following:
* Ensure that the script is readable by the account used by the iPlanet service.Generally, this means you should make the script readable by the Everyonegroup.
* Ensure that all supporting files, like the perl binary files, the perl library files, and the modules that you use, are all readable by the account used by the iPlanet service (i.e., the Everyone group).
It should work now,
Regards,
T.Raghulan
