Situation:

I need to login to a web site with perl script which is a https connection.

Problem I faced:

I was supposed get a 302 return, however I got 200 with empty tag. I guess I have some proxy issue

What's my question:

I tried to debug what's causing the problem. I read in some questions that LWP needs Crypt-SSLeay to make https connection. But I found that LWP can be built with https support, is Crypt-SSLeay still a necessary?

  • How about showing some code? – Jim Garrison Mar 14 '13 at 04:14
  • don't understand why some one vote close, if you know the answer, give the answer; if you don't, then move on. – Wei Mar 14 '13 at 04:36

    There's more to it than that. This site is not _primarily_ about answering _your_ question. It's about building a knowledge-base that answers _specific_ questions that might help many other people in the future. Please read the [FAQ] and [Ask], and visit [meta] to see the types of discussions around what SO is and isn't. _"I tried to debug..."_ well, show the code, explain what you did and what happened that you did not expect. "It didn't work" is insufficient. – Jim Garrison Mar 14 '13 at 04:41
  • @Jim Garrison You don't need to come to education everyone about the FAQ. There are different types of questions, some you can show in code, some you don't need to. Not every programming question is about coding. If you know the topic, you can provide a very good answer. No one expect you know answer to every question. – Wei Mar 15 '13 at 00:12

For LWP > 6.00 you need to install LWP::Protocol::https to use https.

However, if you got a response at all the https connection succeeded. The problem likely lies somewhere else.

You've shown no code, so there's not much more to say.
