openssl standard exemple with suspect error

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

hello guys , hello master of "Fu" . I just get into a complex project with a secure chat connection ssl. I start by trying recovered as much documentation as possible and I am having problems with this example standard http://devpit.org/wiki/OpenSSL_with_nonblocking_sockets_%28in_Perl%29 I use the example provided on page

my error is that

~]# perl opensslblock3.pl

I do not understand the error because I think I have correctly installed the libraries on my server . sincerely

I've just checked out the script; it seems OK, and works for me (well, barring the various key validation warnings - but no compilation failures.) A quick chase down the stack shows that the call to 'ENGINE_load' comes from the binary SSLeay.so file in /usr/lib/perl5/auto/Net/SSLeay (at least that's where it is on my system). Take a look at your file structure and see if you can locate this file (maybe by using 'find'), then check to make sure that the path to the top-level module directory (in my case, that would be /usr/lib/perl5) is included in your @INC. If it's not, that's the problem; read up on the PERL5LIB variable for one of the ways to fix it. If you don't find the file, that's a different problem: possibly an incorrect module installation or a missing SSL library. -- I hate storms, but calms undermine my spirits. -- Bernard Moitessier, "The Long Way"	[reply]
