Re^4: Problem with LWP::UserAgent

in thread Problem with LWP::UserAgent

Weird, $ua->request() by me crashes. The error reported by Perl is none (the crash is uncontrolled). The system exception code c0000005 stands for memory access violation (attempt to write or read to/from invalid address). What's your Perl version and can you share your ssleay32.dll and libeay32.dll?

Event:    APPCRASH
Application:    perl.exe
App version:    5.26.3.2603
Error module:    perl526.dll
Error module version:    0.0.0.0
Exception code:    c0000005
Exception offset:    000000000013ada7
OS version:    6.3.9600.2.0.0.256.4

Smells like a broken module installation. I'd reinstall Net::SSLeay and if that doesn't work reinstall Perl. See if the problem persists.

Must be caused by my OS. I run your script on virtualized Windows 10 which shares same Perl installation with host and running fine there. Can the crash be caused by older Windows? Moreover is perl's LWP using any external libraries beyond SSLeay.xs.dll? Btw my dll is only SSLeay.dll and is over 2MB.	[reply]

Could be caused by bitrot. Or by a malicious hacker using Ctrl-Meta-Butterfly. Or something else, I don't know. But something has been corrupted or you wouldnt get a hard crash like that. Again: Reinstall and see if the problem persists. holli You can lead your users to water, but alas, you cannot drown them.	[reply] [d/l]
