in reply to HTTPS connection with LWP and self-signed certificate

Look at the logs of the server you are attempting to connect to.   It is probably getting the cert but rejecting it.   SSL is designed to work exactly one way and to give minimal, cryptic diagnostic information.   (After all, “you could be Eve.”)

    I checked both the /var/log/apache2/access.log and error.log. There was no sign of the connection in either of them. I guess it didn't show up in the access log because the connection was never completed?
