in reply to DBH - segmentation fault - out of memory?

Are you sure that the problem is with both, DBI and LWP/https ? I would try to check whether the problem is "simply" with a broken Crypt::SSLeay installation.

    The msg *does* go away if I use a non-HTTPS site. IE 'craigslist' or similar. Other HTTPS sites cause the error.

    It must be some combination of the two. I can connect to a DB *or* I can get the XML data. Not both.

    To be sure I did a CPAN 'install Crypt::SSLeay'.
    Writing /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto/Cr +ypt/SSLeay/.packlist Appending installation info to /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.5/i386-linux-thread- +multi/perllocal.pod DLAND/Crypt-SSLeay-0.57.tar.gz sudo make install -- OK
    No change in the error.

      Here's an interesting twist: If I add the line 'use Crypt::SSLeay;' right after 'use strict' the error goes away.

      Go figure.
