in thread How to get a better error message from LWP::UserAgent on missing SSL certificates?

I verified it with curl -s $URL, and it worked. Same with wget --no-check-certificate $URL.

    I've tried to reproduce the problem, but it just works here.
    If I hide the CA certificate, I get an error with verify_hostname set, I don't if it is unset or set to 0.
    (Perl 5.22.2, LWP::UserAgent 6.15, LWP::Protocol::https 6.06 on Fedora 24.)
      I forgot; on error, the message seen here is

      500 SSL_ca_file /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt does not exist at ./foo.pl line 15.

      Seems quite right.
