This suggests that you might be running against a very old version of the openssl libs which don't support TLSv1.2 (which is the oldest protocol that particular server supports). Try running openssl version and see which version you have. Maybe it's time to upgrade?

Thanks for the help. That worked. I was able to get the JSON data I was trying to get. Now I will try to parse it. Glad to know people are still using perl. I did a lot of Perl back in the late 90's. Mike	[reply]

Perl is alive and well. There are some really convenient ways of fetching & parsing data provided by Mojolicious, see Re: bitcoin price from command line for one example.	[reply]

sh-3.2# openssl version OpenSSL 0.9.8zh 14 Jan 2016 Yeah, I'm guessing pretty old? I will upgrade and see what happens. Thanks again Mike	[reply]
