Hi,

I'm installing a program on shared hosting environment that
requires LWP::UserAgent and Crypt::SSLeay


Both perl modules are installed.


The program works find for Non SSL but when it trys to access an
SSL domain nothing is returned.

Here is a snippet of what the debug using LWP::Debug ('+');

# LWP::DebugFile logging to lwp_48a4856e_a91.log
# Time now: {1218741614} = Thu Aug 14 15:20:14 2008
# Time now: {1218741615} = Thu Aug 14 15:20:15 2008
LWP::UserAgent::new: ()
LWP::UserAgent::request: ()
LWP::UserAgent::send_request: GET https://www.paypal.com
LWP::UserAgent::_need_proxy: Not proxied
LWP::Protocol::http::request: ()


The test code is:

#!/usr/bin/perl
$|= 1;
use LWP::DebugFile ('+');


use LWP::UserAgent;
use Crypt::SSLeay;

print STDOUT "Content-type: text/plain\n\n";

my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new;
$ua->timeout(10);
$ua->env_proxy;

my $response = $ua->get('https://www.paypal.com');


if ($response->is_success) {
print STDOUT $response->content;
}
else {
print STDOUT $response->status_line;
if ($result->is_error) {
print STDOUT "error\n";
my $msg = $result->error_as_HTML;
print STDOUT $msg;
}
}


exit;
