Re: 500 error with LWP:UserAgent

Hi there!

Would like to help, but this is not a Perl question. As you said, changing the URL to another site, it-just-works. The problem is knowing what that payment system company expects; unfortunately their documentation seems to be private. You'll need a peek at the documentation or some help from them directly.

Update: Okay, have to apologize I guess, since I decided to try your code here anyway. It turns out with v5.18.4, i get your 500 error, and with v5.20.0 i get web content back saying that an error occurred (in Spanish). With the exact same copy of your code. Odd.

Update2: Wireshark revealed it was an SSL error causing the problem. Something must have changed in the Perl SSL module between v18 and v20. Anyway, if you change the ssl_opt to that given below, the code works in either version:

my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new(ssl_opts => { verify_hostname => 0, SSL_v
+ersion => 'TLSv1' });
[download]

You may want to look at the other SSL options as listed in the IO::Socket::SSL docs.

HTH

Hi there, I tried your modification and it didnt change my case. I use perl v5.14.2 LWP::UserAgent v6.06 HTTP::Request v6.00 IO::Socket::SSL 1.955 Adding `use Net::SSLeay; $Net::SSLeay::trace = 2;` [download] as suggested on stackoverflow : http://stackoverflow.com/questions/26732578/500-error-with-lwpuseragent produced the output DEBUG: .../IO/Socket/SSL.pm:449: socket not yet connected DEBUG: .../IO/Socket/SSL.pm:451: socket connected DEBUG: .../IO/Socket/SSL.pm:469: ssl handshake not started DEBUG: .../IO/Socket/SSL.pm:504: using SNI with hostname sis-t.redsys. +es DEBUG: .../IO/Socket/SSL.pm:527: set socket to non-blocking to enforce + timeout=10 DEBUG: .../IO/Socket/SSL.pm:550: ssl handshake in progress DEBUG: .../IO/Socket/SSL.pm:560: waiting for fd to become ready: SSL w +ants a read first DEBUG: .../IO/Socket/SSL.pm:570: handshake failed because socket did n +ot became ready Error: 500 Can't connect to sis-t.redsys.es:25443 [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Well it's a puzzle for sure. I installed Perl and those modules with the same version you have, and it just worked with the updated code. The old code gave the same Net::SSLeay debug output as yours. There is some underlying difference between our setups obviously. There's a chance that changing the SSL version to this would help: `SSL_version => 'TLSv1:!TLSv11:!TLSv12:!SSLv2:!SSLv3'` [download] The last two components are supposedly redundant. But in any case, that long version string wasn't needed here (with any of 3 machines). Update: Just as a debugging step, try adding random garbage to the string you pass into SSL_version. You should expect the following error, otherwise something is up in Denmark: `Error: 500 invalid SSL_version specified` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]

May i ask for your perl -MIO::Socket::SSL -e 'print "$IO::Socket::SSL::VERSION\n"' version please ? I just was able to test on a machine with perl 5.14.2 LWP:User::Agent 6.04 IO::Socket::SSL 1.76 Net::SSLeay 1.48 (while mine is 1.55) and it just worked fine (exact same code, I scp-ed it)	[reply]

One good news, one bad. Good news is we dont need to disturb Denmark government, i achieved the 500 invalid SSL_version specified with SSL_version='Garbage' Bad news is changing the SSL_version doesnt solve my problem at all. Could it be due to perl version ? (I cant change mine here :/)	[reply]
