I will share with you the ultimate wisdom of SSL/TLS debugging. Anytime you find yourself saying, "why has my SSL/TLS session failed to be established?", all you need to do is insert this line at the top of your script (before any other modules are loaded):

use IO::Socket::SSL qw(debug3);

[download]

This will give you a trace of the attempted establishment of the SSL/TLS session and will give at least some clue as to where the error lies. As often as not it will be "certificate verify failed" and you'll need to examine the certs carefully to see why but at least it will give that clue as to where to start looking.

I hope that this is useful to you.
