The example works just fine for me. Usually, when I've seen the "cannot read data from the server" message, it indicates that the server closed the connection prematurely. More often than not, it's just an intermittent failure. Give it another go and tell me if it still fails for you. If it does, libcurl is behaving differently between versions or something, and it's going to be fun to track down. -- Chris
