Re: LWP::UserAgent certificate verify failed

If you're using Mozilla::CA, that contains the certificate chains, and some of the SSL certificates were revoked recently.

If you didn't update Mozilla::CA, maybe the server you're connecting to changed their certificate or that certificate expired.

I had an older Mozilla::CA installed, so I updated it and and that didn't change things. Still the question of how to point to the folder that holds the certificates. I have checked with the company about their certificates, but I can still access the service through their web page, which I assume (but don't know) uses the same certificates.

How do I find that path on Windows? `#!perl use File::Find; find(\&wanted,@INC); sub wanted { print "$File::Find::dir/$_\n" if ($_ =~ /\.pem$/); }` [download] poj	[reply] [d/l]

I think you can make LWP::UserAgent tell you in more detail about where things went wrong. You could run analyze-ssl.pl to find out where the connection fails, or you could look at the response body of the 500 error to see what the X-whatever headers say about the error reason. You could also look at IO::Socket::SSL and turn up the debugging options there to see where things break down.	[reply]
