Your guess is correct. It didn't have the openssl dll's for some reason and there doesn't seem to be anything Strawberry specific it approves. I extracted the Strawberry's web site's libssl and libcrypto to their respective folders perl\c\bin, but it didn't still find them and I don't know why it doesn't look in there. I copied them to \Strawberry\perl\vendor\lib\auto\Crypt\SSLeay to test if they work at all and after that I got at least a different error

Net::SSL from Crypt-SSLeay can't verify hostnames; either install IO:: +Socket::SSL or turn off verification by setting the PERL_LWP_SSL_VERI +FY_HOSTNAME environment variable to 0 at /STRAWBERRY/perl/site/lib/LW +P/Protocol/http.pm line 50.

If I remember correctly, this happens because Crypt-SSLeay doesn't support hostname verification, but instead I should use IO::Socket:SSL as the error message also tells? And I'm probably doing something wrong with the dll's, since they cannot be found.

Edit: I could add use IO::Socket::SSL to the beginning of the code, but earlier it used that module automatically, so I suspect it just tries Crypt-SSLeay as the first one doesn't seem to work.

Edit2: There are actually two Perl's on that server and just the first (older) has its c\bin in path. Might affect the finding of the dll's. <facepalm>
