This should work: 

#!/usr/bin/perl
use LWP::UserAgent;
my $agent = LWP::UserAgent->new();
$agent->proxy(['http', 'https'], "http://APIKEY:@proxy.crawlera.com:8010");
print $agent->get('http://httpbin.scrapinghub.com/ip')->content();

Hi,


When I run this script from my local XP machine, it works fine but when I do the same from a remote server running on Linux, it says: 500 Can't connect to proxy.crawlera.com:8010 (connect: Connection refused).


Can you tell me what the issue could be? Thanks

It seems some firewall blocking the Crawlera proxy port. Can you please check the firewalls and open the port 8010.
