FTP Client

[karthikeyanck]

I 'm creating a FTP client and i get an error when i try this

Can't locate object method "ls" via package "ftp" (perhaps you forgot to load "f
tp"?) at ftp.pl line 239, <> line 1.


The below is the subroutine, i get input from the user and put the same to an arry and take that again for later usage,

[code=perl]
$ftp = Net::FTP->new($site, Debug => 0)
$ftp->login($un,$pwd );

$free = @comm[1];
@list = $ftp->ls($free); # I get the error here !
foreach (@list){
print "\n".$_."\n ";
}
prwrkdir();
comm();
[/code]

This line:

[code=perl]
$free = @comm[1];
[/code]

should read:

[code=perl]
$free = $comm[1];
[/code]

When you reference an element of an array, the @ changes to a $.

Also, make sure that $comm[1] resolves to a directory as that is what ls() is expecting.

What Jeff said is true, but it would not have fixed your problem. Either you added the "use Net::FTP;" line or the $ftp object is now getting created when you run the new() method. Did you not have $site defined?
