Re^2: Creating SSL socket

Thanks Khen1950fx

Apparently LWP::Protocol::HTTPS has not been installed on my system, and unfortunately it failed the install tests

Running make test
C:\strawberry\perl\bin\perl.exe "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-e" "test_h
+arness(0, 'blib\lib', 'blib\arch')" t/*.t
t/apache.t .. 1/4

So now I am working to figure out how to get this module to install. There is no issue connecting to https://apache.org/ in my browsers.

Using my internal https host, the script continues on to report:

[...]
DEBUG: .../IO/Socket/SSL.pm:537: Net::SSLeay::connect -> -1
DEBUG: .../IO/Socket/SSL.pm:543: fatal SSL error: SSL connect attempt 
+failed with unknown error
[...]

However if I change the host to apache.org (443):

DEBUG: .../IO/Socket/SSL.pm:1784: new ctx 60344912
OK: Connected
DEBUG: .../IO/Socket/SSL.pm:1821: free ctx 60344912 open=60344912
DEBUG: .../IO/Socket/SSL.pm:1829: OK free ctx 60344912
not ok:  at [ the $socket->close line ]
[download]

There's one other important detail that I left out. The server that I'm connecting to is a load balancer. I don't think this should matter as it is supposed transparently forward the requests/responses.

I'm going continue to explore testing against a known, working, external web service to determine if our internal web service/load balancer are breaking the script.

Was a solution ever fond to the LWP::Protocol::HTTPS make test? I am having the same issue.	[reply]

I fixed this by upgrading IO::Socket::IP from 0.30 to 0.31 https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=97050 YMMV	[reply]

Was a solution ever fond to the LWP::Protocol::HTTPS make test? I am having the same issue. Its simple, switch networks (whatever firewall/loadbalancer/proxy/network you're using isn't cooperating -- or you forgot to pay bill or your credentials expired ) or skip the test, or force the install, or both :) cpan -f -i -T Module ; gets the module to install but you still may have same network problem	[reply]
