LWP Can't POST to HTTPSby dorko (Prior) |

dorko has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
Hello, In my (self-declared virtuous) laziness, I'm trying to write a script to POST an XML file to a server. The alternative is to do this by by hand, about 10,000 times - it's part of a migration process. I've done things like this before; it's not hard. But it's also not working. I think I'm seeing a problem with LWP handling SSL. If I send the POST to HTTPS, it fails. If I send the post to HTTP is succeeds. (Well, the server doesn't accept HTTP connections, but it connects and the server responds with a 302 redirect to the HTTPS address.) I've Googled around and others have suggested upgrading OpenSSL. I'm already using the latest OpenSSL 1.01c. Long delay with Crypt::SSLeay and LWP suggested setting $ENV{HTTPS_VERSION} = 3;, but that didn't work either. I'd also like to mention in the same script, using WWW::Mechanize, I'm POSTing to an HTTP site and downloading a file and that works fine. This is the error from LWP: I'm running WinXP, ActiveState Perl 5.14.2, OpenSSL 1.01c, and LWP 6.04. Thoughts? Questions? Comments? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Cheers,
Brent
