I wasn't using 0.84 which has solved the issue on linux. But on Windows (Using ActiveState Perl 5.10) I have now a bigger issue. The SSLify module can not set the socket to be blocking using the IO::Handle's blocking(1) method (&Set_Blocking). I see that there is a work around on internet of dealing with blocking sockets and win 32 which is working somehow on ActiveState Perl 5.10 (here). But I am not sure how to apply this patch... Can you help me please. Please try using https://www.tabonline.co.za/ in the test. I gave it a shot but after overriding the socket blocking mode like that I am now getting Bad Request "incomplete response" ... Looks like HTTP.pm doesn't read anything from this socket. Funny enough looks like from time to time it does. Very strange. Please help!
UPDATE:
Herewith a hint on the problem... experienced in a different environment - same issue...
