Hello, I am trying to run a simple test script (see at the bottom), and the module 'IO/Socket/SSL.pm' => '0.75 from /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.0/IO/Socket/SSL.pm' invokes (here is output from debugger): IO::Socket::SSL::configure(/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.0/IO/Socket/SSL.pm:153): 153: if( ! defined ($ctx_obj = SSL_Context->new($args)) ) { SSL_Context::new(/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.0/IO/Socket/SSL.pm:666) and further tries to invoke Net::SSLeay::CTX_load_verify_locations 685: if(!($r = Net::SSLeay::CTX_load_verify_locations($ctx, 686: $ca_file, 687: $ca_path))) { using "default" values for CA_PATH and CA_FILE. As a result, it fails with "No such file or direct +ory" error: Connection failed: No such file or directory at ssl_sock.pl line 8. Can somebody please advise how to avoid this ?
