Getting error trying to use Net::SSLeay in LWP script

kuce has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I'm running the below code and am getting the following error:

Use of uninitialized value in -r at blib/lib/Net/SSLeay.pm (autosplit into blib/lib/auto/Net/SSLeay/randomize.al) line 1159.
Use of uninitialized value in -r at blib/lib/Net/SSLeay.pm (autosplit into blib/lib/auto/Net/SSLeay/randomize.al) line 1163.

#!/usr/bin/perl -w

use strict;
use LWP::Simple;
use LWP::UserAgent;
use LWP::Protocol::https;

my $url = "https://www.goto.com/s/dtc/simple-signup/";

my $ua = new LWP::UserAgent;
my $request = new HTTP::Request GET=> $url;

my $page = $ua->request($request);

if ($page->is_success) {
    print $page->content;
} else {
    print $page->error_as_HTML;
}

Is there something wrong with my module installation? Thanks.

You need to have SSL installed. Try Crypt::SSLeay .	[reply]

I have Net::SSLeay installed. Is that enough?	[reply]

Check out the Crypt::SSLeay docs (available here): You must have OpenSSL or SSLeay installed before compiling this module. You can get the latest OpenSSL package from: http://www.openssl.org	[reply]

I think you should include the SSLeay in your script. `use Net::SSLeay;` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

I think its because you have the 'warning' turned on. It just means that at some point in your script you used a variable without initializing it. Like: `$foo; $bar = "ahhhhh"; while ( $foo eq $bar ) { # execute }` [download] Foo was never assigned a value and that is considered 'uninitialized'. Hope that helps. - kel -	[reply] [d/l]
