Starting with version 6.02 of \s-1LWP\s0, \f(CW\*(C`https\*(C'\fR support was unbundled into LWP::Protocol::https. This module specifies as one of its prerequisites IO::Socket::SSL which is automatically used by LWP::UserAgent unless this preference is overridden separately. \f(CW\*(C`IO::Socket::SSL\*(C'\fR is a more complete implementation, and, crucially, it allows hostname verification. \&\f(CW\*(C`Crypt::SSLeay\*(C'\fR does not support this. At this point, \f(CW\*(C`Crypt::SSLeay\*(C'\fR is maintained to support existing software that already depends on it. However, it is possible that your software does not really depend on \&\f(CW\*(C`Crypt::SSLeay\*(C'\fR, only on the ability of \f(CW\*(C`LWP::UserAgent\*(C'\fR class to communicate with sites over \s-1SSL/TLS.\s0 .PP If are using version \f(CW\*(C`LWP\*(C'\fR 6.02 or later, and therefore have installed \&\f(CW\*(C`LWP::Protocol::https\*(C'\fR and its dependencies, and do not explicitly \f(CW\*(C`use\*(C'\fR \&\f(CW\*(C`Net::SSL\*(C'\fR before loading \f(CW\*(C`LWP::UserAgent\*(C'\fR, or override the default socket class, you are probably using \f(CW\*(C`IO::Socket::SSL\*(C'\fR and do not really need \&\f(CW\*(C`Crypt::SSLeay\*(C'\fR. .PP If you have both \f(CW\*(C`Crypt::SSLeay\*(C'\fR and \f(CW\*(C`IO::Socket::SSL\*(C'\fR installed, and would like to force \f(CW\*(C`LWP::UserAgent\*(C'\fR to use \f(CW\*(C`Crypt::SSLeay\*(C'\fR, you can use: .PP .Vb 3 \& use Net::HTTPS; \& $Net::HTTPS::SSL_SOCKET_CLASS = \*(AqNet::SSL\*(Aq; \& use LWP::UserAgent; .Ve .PP or .PP .Vb 2 \& local $ENV{PERL_NET_HTTPS_SSL_SOCKET_CLASS} = \*(AqNet::SSL\*(Aq; \& use LWP::UserAgent; .Ve .PP or .PP .Vb 2 \& use Net::SSL; \& use LWP::UserAgent; .Ve .SH "ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES" .IX Header "ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES" .IP "Specify \s-1SSL\s0 Socket Class" 4 .IX Item "Specify SSL Socket Class" \&\f(CW$ENV{PERL_NET_HTTPS_SSL_SOCKET_CLASS}\fR can be used to instruct \&\f(CW\*(C`LWP::UserAgent\*(C'\fR to use \f(CW\*(C`Net::SSL\*(C'\fR for \s-1HTTPS\s0 support rather than \&\f(CW\*(C`IO::Socket::SSL\*(C'\fR. .IP "Proxy Support" 4 .IX Item "Proxy Support" .Vb 1 \& $ENV{HTTPS_PROXY} = \*(Aqhttp://proxy_hostname_or_ip:port\*(Aq; .Ve .IP "Proxy Basic Authentication" 4 .IX Item "Proxy Basic Authentication" .Vb 2 \& $ENV{HTTPS_PROXY_USERNAME} = \*(Aqusername\*(Aq; \& $ENV{HTTPS_PROXY_PASSWORD} = \*(Aqpassword\*(Aq; .Ve .IP "\s-1SSL\s0 diagnostics and Debugging" 4 .IX Item "SSL diagnostics and Debugging" .Vb 1 \& $ENV{HTTPS_DEBUG} = 1; .Ve .IP "Default \s-1SSL\s0 Version" 4 .IX Item "Default SSL Version" .Vb 1 \& $ENV{HTTPS_VERSION} = \*(Aq3\*(Aq; .Ve .IP "Client Certificate Support" 4 .IX Item "Client Certificate Support" .Vb 2 \& $ENV{HTTPS_CERT_FILE} = \*(Aqcerts/notacacert.pem\*(Aq; \& $ENV{HTTPS_KEY_FILE} = \*(Aqcerts/notacakeynopass.pem\*(Aq; .Ve .IP "\s-1CA\s0 cert Peer Verification" 4 .IX Item "CA cert Peer Verification" .Vb 2 \& $ENV{HTTPS_CA_FILE} = \*(Aqcerts/ca\-bundle.crt\*(Aq; \& $ENV{HTTPS_CA_DIR} = \*(Aqcerts/\*(Aq; .Ve .IP "Client \s-1PKCS12\s0 cert support" 4 .IX Item "Client PKCS12 cert support" .Vb 2 \& $ENV{HTTPS_PKCS12_FILE} = \*(Aqcerts/pkcs12.pkcs12\*(Aq; \& $ENV{HTTPS_PKCS12_PASSWORD} = \*(AqPKCS12_PASSWORD\*(Aq; .Ve .SH "INSTALL" .IX Header "INSTALL" .SS "OpenSSL" .IX Subsection "OpenSSL" You must have OpenSSL installed before compiling this module.

This can be more of an issue on Windows. If you are using Active State Perl, install the MinGW package distributed by them, and build OpenSSL using that before trying to build this module. If you have built your own Perl using Microsoft \s-1SDK\s0 tools or IDEs, make sure you build OpenSSL using the same tools. .PP Depending on your \s-1OS,\s0 pre-built OpenSSL packages may be available. To get the require headers and import libraries, you may need to install a development version of your operating system's OpenSSL library package. The key is that \f(CW\*(C`Crypt::SSLeay\*(C'\fR makes calls to the OpenSSL library, and how to do so is specified in the C header files that come with the library. Some systems break out the header files into a separate package from that of the libraries.
