Having trouble getting started using 0.19

Posted on 2005-10-15 03:11:15-07 by zolan57

I've tried using:
my $eBay = new Net::eBay("ebay.ini");
with my information, including Sandbox token, and specifying the hash keys directly without success.
With the first method I get:
Error parsing XML ( syntax error at line 1, column 0, byte 0 at C:/Perl/site/lib/XML/Parser.pm line 187 ). eBay Official Time = ."
With the 2nd method I get:
Can't call method "submitRequest" on an undefined value at ebay-time.pl line 9.
If anyone can provide insight, I'd appreciate it.

Re: Having trouble getting started using 0.19

Okay, I'm one step farther down the road. I needed to install
http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppms/Crypt-SSLeay.ppd
I started with a fresh installation of Active Perl 5.8 on a Windows XP Pro workstation. Used PPM to upgrade to the latest versions of all modules. Installed Cygwin to get the Unix utilities wget,tar,gzip, etc. Then I setup CPAN and installed Net-EBay v0.19 unsing CPAN because the module isn't available in PPM.
After installing Crypt-SSLeay the first method (my $eBay = new Net::eBay("ebay.ini");) works.
Forward and onward.
