https

[Scott Stavretis]

Hello,   I am having some problems connecting to https sites, I have no idea if I am even asking the correct list, any help would be appriciated.. I have installed openssl 0.9.6b, Net::SSLeay Bundle::LWP MIME::Base64 HTTP::Status  Basically I can post to http sites however not https it refuses to connect to the site and does not report an error.   An example script I am trying is below..  I have tried a few differant scripts that I have on the web to try and do things like this will no luck.  Any help is appriciated. I have tried Net::SSLeay script with no luck either, if anyone has anything I can try please let me know.   I am running Mandrake 8 on 2.4.x #!/usr/bin/perl # Create a user agent object use LWP::UserAgent; $ua = new LWP::UserAgent; $ua->agent("AgentName/0.1 " . $ua->agent); # Create a request my $req = new HTTP::Request POST => 'https://www.bigpond.com; $req->content_type('application/x-www-form-urlencoded'); $req->content('match=www&errors=0'); # Pass request to the user agent and get a response back my $res = $ua->request($req); # Check the outcome of the response if ($res->is_success) { print $res->content; } else {       print "An error occured\n"; } ~~~~~~~ This prints an error occured if I change the address to http:// not https:// it works (I have tried many sites).     Thanks Scott
