Last few days getting the following error on code that used to work: malformed JSON string, neither tag, array, object, number, string or atom, at character offset 0 (before "<!DOCTYPE html>\n<ht...") at /usr/local/share/perl/5.26.1/Net/LastFM.pm line 83. Simply trying to pull most recent track. my $lastfm = Net::LastFM->new(... my $data = $lastfm->request_signed( method => 'user.getRecentTracks', user => 'xxx', ); Thanks, Andrew
