I am using the following packages: LWP Version:6.29, Mechanize Version:1.86, IO Socket Version:2.052, and Net SSLeay Version:1.82. I am supplying my pfx certificate file via ssl_opts, using option "SSL_cert_file => $cert_path". However, in return I get this error from the host:

"500 SSL upgrade failed: Failed to load certificate from file (no PEM, DER or PKCS12) error:23076071:PKCS12 routines:PKCS12_parse:mac verify failure".

My manual login via Chrome is working fine, so the host is able to parse my certificate that way, which means that there is something that I am failing to provide it in my script to cause the problem. Since SSL provides support for pfx file and the host is able to load it via manual login, I should not have to change it to the PEM or other format, right? I do see that the SSL code (IO/Socket/SSL.pm) is recognizing my pfx cert for what it is. Any suggestions?
