awohld has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I'm trying to install Crypt::SSLeay in a server with Perl 5.8.8 and OpenSSL 0.9.8a.

It's failing with this error: 
cpan> test Crypt::SSLeay

What's up with this?

UPDATE:I'm getting these errors with OpenSSL 0.9.8a, but with OpenSSL 0.9.7g it all works. I think Crypt::SSLeay isn't updated to OpenSSL 0.9.8a as indicated in Crypt::SSLeay's documentation.

    It's working for me here, on linux. Those t scripts only connect to 127.0.0.1 , so they should work. Maybe your network configuration dosn't have a route setup to 127.0.0.1 ? If you run "ifconfig" as root, do you have an entry for "lo' which shows 127.0.0.1 as the INET address?

    There is a lwp-ssl-test script in the toplevel dir of the module, it should give good output if you are online.

      I do have lo as 127.0.0.1 and I can force install it

      When I run the "lwp-ssl-test" I get a Segmentation Fault.
