SSLeay.dll Access denied

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

ActivePerl, v5.8.8 built for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread on a Windows 2003 Server.

I'm using Net::SMTP::SSL to send E-mail to a gmail account that requires authentication. I wrote a command-line script that did the job, no problem. When I tried to do the same thing from within a CGI on IIS6 I got the below. I found all occurances of SSLeah.dll and ssleay32.dll, renamed all the non-perl ones inactive, changed the permissions on the perl directories to full for IUSR_computername, made sure the dlls involved and perl were in PATH and I still get the below error.

I also tried the command line permission changer: xcacls D:/Perl/site/lib/auto/Net/SSLeay/SSLeay.dll /E /G IUSR_COMPUTERNAME:RXE

What else might I try?

Can't load 'D:/Perl/site/lib/auto/Net/SSLeay/SSLeay.dll' for module Ne
+t::SSLeay: load_file:Access is denied at D:/Perl/lib/DynaLoader.pm li
+ne 230.

Could you expand on this a little? Would I eval the "use Net::SMTP::SSL;" line or die with a reference to '$^E'?	[reply]

Create a short cgi script that displays the output from `xcacls D:/Perl/site/lib/auto/Net/SSLeay/SSLeay.dll` and see what you get? Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error. "Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority". In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice. "Too many [] have been sedated by an oppressive environment of political correctness and risk aversion."	[reply] [d/l]
