Hello Monks,

I'm new to perl, I'm working in windows Xp environment, I want to acess a https sites. I found LWP Module supports to access http sites via OpenSSL and Crypt::Ssleay.

I downloaded and installed OpenSSL in c:\openssl and i installed Crypt::Ssley module too.

Perl Command Line Interpreter shows a error report that ssleay32.dll encounters a problem.

Please help me to solve the problem or any other approach to acess the https sites.

code part:

#!/usr/bin/perl

use LWP 5.64;
  my $url = 'https://www.paypal.com/';   # Yes, HTTPS!
  my $browser = LWP::UserAgent->new;
  my $response = $browser->get($url);
  die "Error at $url\n ", $response->status_line, "\n Aborting"
   unless $response->is_success;
  print "Whee, it worked!  I got that ",
   $response->content_type, " document!\n";

advance thanks to all monks.
with regards
