Hello. My administrator has installed Crypt::SSLeay 0.16 and OpenSSL 0.9.4 on an AIX 4.2 box. We are using Perl 5.00502. When I try to run the net_ssl_test executable, I get the following: /development/prevette/perl_install/Crypt-SSLeay-0.16>net_ssl_test HEAD webdata1.place.lexmark.com 443 Net::SSL: SSL negotiation failed at ./net_ssl_test line 9 Net::SSL: A file descriptor does not refer to an open file. at ./net_ssl_test line 9 Net::SSL: A file descriptor does not refer to an open file. at ./net_ssl_test line 9 Use of uninitialized value at /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/aix/Net/SSL.pm line 53. Net::SSL: A file descriptor does not refer to an open file. at ./net_ssl_test line 9 Can't connect to webdata1.place.lexmark.com:443 at ./net_ssl_test line 9. I have gone line by line through the debugger. It appears that a good socket connection is made to the server when it gets to Net::SSL::connect. But when it gets to the line my $ssl = Crypt::SSLeay::Conn->new(*$self->{'ssl_ctx'}, $self); it is never successful. $ssl->connect will always return -1 no matter if it tries ssl_version 23, 3, or 2. My web server administrator tells me that 2 or 3 should be fine for that machine. How can I test OpenSSL to make sure that it is not causing the problem? Any diagnostic tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, Dan Prevette ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
