LWP::UserAgent SSL problem

[fortytwo]

Hello,

I have a problem with LWP::UserAgent. I am running some performance tests on a site that uses SSL. I have Crypt::SSLeay installed and this is pretty much the code fragment I am using to make the requests:
[tt]
$url = '

https://somedomain.com/some.cgi';

$ua = LWP::UserAgent->new();
$ua->cookie_jar(HTTP::Cookies->new(file => "lwpcookies.txt", autosave => 1));
$ua->agent('WebSuck/v0.1');
$req = HTTP::Request->new(POST => $url);
$req->content_type('application/x-

http://www-form-urlencoded');

$req->content('parameter=value');
$req->referer('

http://www.goatpr0n.com/');

$response = $ua->request($req);
[/tt]
Unfortunatly one part of the site that I need to access needs a cookie set in another part of the site. This works fine when not using SSL, the cookie jar updates normally, however when making the request over SSL no cookies are saved. There is no error returned, just no cookies. Has anyone else come across this problem, and is there a solution?

Many thanks
Will.

I heard somewhere that you can set -Secured option while you make a cookie

jvdboom, this is not about *setting* cookies, rather accepting and storing them when using the LWP library to fetch webpages.

The -secure option was ment to only let it read by SSL.But I don't think that's the problem here. Unfortunality I haven't use LWP::Useragent yet to fetch cookies or SSL so I can't help you much.
Have you already tried to creare/fetch cookies with SSL using the common way? Have you read an RFC about SSL?
