Trying to make LWP work with httpS
Hi, I just got finished force installing Crypt::SSLeay to my OSX 10.3.2 box. When I try to run a perl code that calls https, instead of my previous error message of: 501 Protocol scheme 'https' is not supported I now post SSLeay install get: dyld: perl Undefined symbols: /Library/Perl/5.8.1/darwin-thread-multi-2level/auto/Crypt/SSLeay/ SSLeay.bundle undefined reference to _OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms expected to be defined in a dynamic image Trace/BPT trap I googled the error message, and didn't get anything.. It's a bad message when google doesn't even come back with a hit.. But I stumbled across your list serv, and was hoping a perl guru might be able to lend me some help.. I haven't had great luck with CPAN.. is there another way to install modules? any ideas? thanks tim my https code below.. straight copy pasted from elsewhere.. --- #!/usr/bin/perl -w use LWP::Simple; my $url = 'https://www.site.com/cgi-bin/ip.pl'; my $content = get $url; die Couldn't get $url unless defined $content; print $content;

Tim, it seems that perl can't access some library functions that it needs to make SSLeay work. You might want to do the following: Search for OPENSSL, e.g.: sudo find / openssl | grep openssl Depending on if you installed the Developer Tools or not you get 2 or 1 location(s) for the main file returned. E.g.: /usr/include/openssl Now... take a look at your PATH, e.g.: set | grep PATH Are the directories for the openssl main directory included in the PATH? If not you have two choices: a) add the openssl main directory to the path PATH=$PATH:/usr/openssl b) add INCLUDE tags for openssl export OPENSSL_INCLUDE=/usr/openssl/include Hope this helps. thanks /oliver/

Using force install doesn't solve compile problems, it simply tells the CPAN shell to ignore them and install the module anyway. What error messages did you get when you compiled the module? When it asked what openssl library to use, did you tell it to use the one in /usr (the default), or did you specify a different one? I haven't had great luck with CPAN.. is there another way to install modules? CPAN neither causes nor prevents compile errors. All it does is download the module, unwrap the tarball, and run perl Makefile.PL; make; make test; make install. If that sequence of commands fails under CPAN, it will fail in the same way if you run it manually. sherm--

Lynx is neither included with Mac OS X nor required by CPAN. During CPAN's initial setup, I recall a prompt asking where lynx and ncftp is. If that's not the case, my mistake. But that's just a standard part of the configuration process. The setup program is written in such a way that it tries to probe what resources you have available and where they might be, and then the tool makes use of the resources it was able to discover. In other words, it'll always ask, on every platform, whether you have programs like lynx ncftp, whether or not you actually have a copy. Whether or not you have copies of the programs it's looking for is a different matter entirely. Some of these things will come with your system, depending on what system you're using, while others may be things you installed manually. OSX happens not to come with either lynx or ncftp by default (though I have a vague memory that 10.1 or 10.2 did have ncftp, but 10.3 doesn't seem to have a copy), but you may have put a copy of your own somewhere like /usr/local or /sw. The thing to keep in mind though is that the local in /usr/local is meant to suggest that this directory is set aside by the vendor for the local user to do with as s/he sees fit. Apple should *never* install anything in /usr/local, and as far as I know, they never have. Other vendors like Sun, Red Hat, SGI, SuSE, etc also leave /usr/local alone. Therefore, if /usr/local was not empty on your system, then whatever was in there was put there by you, and no one else is likely to know what you would have decided to install there.
