Re: Re: Odd effects of mod_perl on IO::Socket or LWP::Protocol?

[ehdonhon]

One possibility: the module Net::HTTPS, used by LWP::Protocol::https::Socket, uses one of IO::Socket::SSL or Net::SSL

Yes, that was exactly it, thanks!

(set $IO::Socket::SSL::VERSION to undef just long enough to fool it into using Net::SSL)

.. And that solution worked for me here as well. :)

It would be nice to know why Net::SSL works but IO::Socket::SSL doesn't. But that is a problem for another day.
