Re: HTTPS returning 400 from Linux but 200 OK from Windows

Hi R

As Anonymous said above… what do you get when you try: lwp-request -m get -USsed http://ppm.activestate.com/CPAN/authors http://cpan.perl.org/authors?

When I do it - I get:

I get those CPAN urls OK. It looks like the issue is only with HTTPS sites. I have HTTP_PROXY and HTTPS_PROXY set including user/pass details in the form HTTP_PROXY='http://user:pass@proxy.my.net:8080' me@linuxbox:~> lwp-request -m get -USsed http://ppm.activestate.com/C +PAN/authors http://cpan.perl.org/authors?

Hi R Hmmm, try setting the following environment variables: `HTTP_PROXY_USER=your_proxy_username HTTP_PROXY_PASS=your_proxy_password` [download] And update `HTTP_PROXY` to: `HTTP_PROXY=http://proxy.my.net:8080` [download] Best of luck! Shadowsong	[reply] [d/l] [select]
