i tried to install (using cpan) IO::Socket::SSL on an hp-ux 11.31, itanium system running perl 5.10.1 (from the hp porting centre) and it failed. here's an example of the kind of errors I got: /usr/lib/hpux32/dld.so: Unsatisfied code symbol 'SSL_set1_param' in load module '/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.10.1/IA64.ARCHREV_0/auto/Net/SSLeay/SSLeay.so'. (there's are thousands of similar lines....) i checked the above library and the SSL_set1_param routine is there. is this a problem with this module or is this related to my version of perl? - donna -- Donna Hofmeister Allegro Consultants, Inc. 408-252-2330 Visit us on Linkedin <https://www.linkedin.com/company/allegro-consultants-inc-> Like us on Facebook <http://www.facebook.com/allegroconsultantsinc>

These errors come from Net::SSLeay and not from IO::Socket::SSL. They are not a bug in IO::Socket::SSL. IO::Socket::SSL depends on a working Net::SSLeay module and this precondition is obviously not satisfied. I don't know what the exact cause of this error is in your case but I could imagine that Net::SSLeay was installed once and then OpenSSL upgraded without rebuilding Net::SSLeay. Such activity might Net::SSLeay to not work anymore and it needs to be rebuild with the currently installed OpenSSL.

Thank you for your timely and helpful reply! It was indeed an issue with OpenSSL. With all the involved bits updated, we're making progress again! :-) - donna -- Donna Hofmeister Allegro Consultants, Inc. 408-252-2330 Visit us on Linkedin <https://www.linkedin.com/company/allegro-consultants-inc-> Like us on Facebook <http://www.facebook.com/allegroconsultantsinc>
