Error code 302 from HTTP POST operation

I have a perl script that posts data to the web service that I wrote in php ...

This is the code:

    use LWP::UserAgent;

    my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new;

    my $server_endpoint = "http://example.com/";

    my $req = HTTP::Request->new(POST => $server_endpoint);
    $req->header('content-type' => 'application/json');
    $req->header('x-auth-token' => 'kfksj48sdfj4jd9d');

    # add POST data to HTTP request body
    my $post_data = '{ "name": "Dan", "address": "NY" }';
    $req->content($post_data);

    my $resp = $ua->request($req);
    if ($resp->is_success) {
         my $message = $resp->decoded_content;
        print "Received reply: $message\n";
    }
    else {
        print "HTTP POST error code: ", $resp->code, "\n";
        print "HTTP POST error message: ", $resp->message, "\n";
    }

When I send the request, I get this response:

   HTTP POST error code: 302
   HTTP POST error message: Found

Questions:

How can I get rid of this error or is this even an error though it's says Found ?
How can I get the return value of the post?
What is the right way to post data ? (The code above is copied from this site. My php site gets the post data and echo or just print it as return.)

Thanks in advance .

A 302 error from a server is a redirection instruction to the client. If you are using the default configuration of LWP::UserAgent, it will automatically follow redirects up to a maximum of seven times. If you are not getting a successful response, it suggests that either you've got redirects turned off (which looks unlikely from the code you've posted, unless you've omitted some configuration details for LWP::UserAgent), or that you're getting stuck in a redirect loop.

You can examine the redirection data by checking the HTTP::Response object:

my $resp = $ua->request($req);

# check for success, etc.
...

if ($resp->is_redirect) {
    # check the number of redirects that the script has made:
    say "n redirects: " . $resp->redirects;
}

With the default LWP::UA settings, seven is the maximum number of redirects you'll get before LWP::UA gives up.

More details on the redirects is available by calling $resp->redirects in array context:

# @redirects is an array of HTTP::Response objects
my @redirects = $resp->redirects;

# print out the 'location' header for each Response object to track the redirection:
say "Location: " . $_->header('location') for @redirects;

# or, for more comprehensive troubleshooting, print out the whole response:
say "Response: " . $_->as_string for @redirects;

Example output for a request to google.com, which redirects once:

# say "n redirects: " . $resp->redirects;
n redirects: 1

# say "Location: " . $_->header('location') for @redirects;
Location: http://www.google.co.uk/?gfe_rd=cr&ei=1bg3VJikJ_HH8gfOk4GwDw

# say "Response: " . $_->as_string for @redirects;

My guess is that you've got stuck in a redirect loop, and that is why you're not getting the expected response back from your PHP script.

NB: to enable say and other useful features from Perl 5.10 and later, put

use feature ':5.10';

at the top of your script after use strict; use warnings;.
