in thread Problem with SSL connection to PayPal

These are about 2 year old versions of the libraries thus it might be that the problems got fixed in the mean time. Another issue might be the version of OpenSSL Perl is linked with. Paypal requires TLS 1.2 which is only available with OpenSSL 1.0.1. You can check the number with 
perl -MNet::SSLeay -e 'printf "0x%x\n",Net::SSLeay::OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER()'
If the result is lower than 0x100010000 your OpenSSL version is too old.

    Thanks to both hippo and noxxi for the advice on versions to support TSL1.2. The problem was the openssl version. My server had 0.9.8. I requested a move to a server with 1.0.1 and everything worked the first try. This problem is solved thanks to your help.
