Subject: jmx4perl fails because of ssl_opts with older libwww-perl
After upgrading from 1.06 to 1.07, some scripts fail with: Unrecognized LWP::UserAgent options: ssl_opts at /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/JMX/Jmx4Perl/Agent.pm line 129 After debugging, this seems to come from the following change: - my $ua = JMX::Jmx4Perl::Agent::UserAgent->new(); + # We don't verify Hostnames by default, since the information we are + # sending is typically not critical. Also, we don't have yet a way to + # configure a keystore, so this is the only chance for now. Ask me to add + # host certificate verification if wanted. + my $ua = JMX::Jmx4Perl::Agent::UserAgent->new(ssl_opts => { verify_hostname => 0 }); On the failing machines, we use a quite old libwww-perl that does not support the ssl_opts option: perl-libwww-perl-5.833-2.el6.noarch. Since this rpm comes with the OS, we cannot upgrade. The ssl_opts option should be used only if supported by the underlying LWP::UserAgent module...

Thanks for spotting this. I moved this ticket over to Github --> https://github.com/rhuss/jmx4perl/issues/28

This will be fixed for the next version.
