Error Cisco Prime HTTP GET request - perl

Question

I'm trying to make an HTTP GET request with Cisco Prime:
#!/opt/local/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use JSON-support_by_pp;
use LWP 5.64;
use LWP::UserAgent;
$ENV{PERL_LWP_SSL_VERIFY_HOSTNAME} = 0;
my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new;
my $BASE_URL = 'https://Host_name/webacs/api/v1/';
my $UN = "Username";
my $PW = "Password";
sub fetch ($) {
my ( $url ) = #_;
my $req = HTTP::Request->new( GET => $BASE_URL . $url );
$req->authorization_basic( $UN, $PW );
return $ua->request( $req )->content or die( "Cannot read from " . $BASE_URL . $url );
}
my $content = fetch( 'data/AccessPoints.json?.full=true' );
my $json = new JSON;
# these are some nice json options to relax restrictions a bit:
my $json_text =
$json->allow_nonref->utf8->relaxed->escape_slash->loose->allow_singlequote->allow_barekey->decode( $content );
foreach my $ap ( #{ $json_text->{queryResponse}->{'entity'} } ) {
print "------------------------\nAccess Point " . $ap->{'accessPointsDTO'}->{'#id'} . "\n";
print "Model:" . $ap->{'accessPointsDTO'}->{'model'} . "\n";
print "MAC Address:" . $ap->{'accessPointsDTO'}->{'macAddress'} . "\n";
print "Serial Number:" . $ap->{'accessPointsDTO'}->{'serialNumber'} . "\n";
print "Software Version:" . $ap->{'accessPointsDTO'}->{'softwareVersion'} . "\n";
print "Status:" . $ap->{'accessPointsDTO'}->{'status'} . "\n";
print "Location:" . $ap->{'accessPointsDTO'}->{'location'} . "\n";
What do I do wrong? I have already tried with curl in shell and it works:
curl --tlsv1 --user USER:PASSWORD--insecure https://Host_name/webacs/api/v1/data/AccessPoints.json?.full=true
but my Perl script doesn't work.
I have this error:
malformed JSON string, neither array, object, number, string or atom, at character offset 0 (before "Can't connect to 10....") at ersteProbe.pl line 28.
Fix already. Thank you Borodin :)
New question:
I need authentication for Cisco Prime.
Code works already, but authentication doesn't work.
I have with error
500 Can't connect to 10.10.10.10:443 (certificate verify failed) at ersteProbeAuth.pl line 27.
Line 27:
die $res->status_line unless $res->is_success;
I'm rather new in Perl und cann't fix this myself. If you have Idee, I'll be happy :)

Answer 1

It's hard to tell what's wrong without access to the web page, but almost certainly your request has failed
I suggest you replace your fetch subroutine with this
sub fetch {
my ( $url ) = #_;
my $res = $ua->get( $BASE_URL . $url );
die $res->status_line unless $res->is_success;
my $json = $res->decoded_content;
return $json;
}

Answer 2

Print your raw answer from server in console.
malformed JSON string, neither array, object, number, string or atom, at character offset 0 (before "Can't connect to 10....")
"Can't connect to 10...."
Maybe, your code is not have connect
