Thanks bpa, for convincing me to stick with this until I figured out
what was going on. After studying the TLS attempts LMS was making using
Wireshark, it was apparent that IO:Socket:SSL was simply not finding the
ca-certificates. DNS was working, but after that connecting to a server
would fail during the startup of TLS. I had ca-certificates properly
installed and updated. Openssl could find them so using openssl directly
worked fine, but a short PERL script calling IO::Socket::SSL would
fail.
Armed with the knowledge I gained using Wireshark, (an indispensable
debugging tool,) and a forum, I found a way around this problem. I
created a short script which I placed in /etc/profile.d, (running
Ubuntu):
Code:
--------------------
#!/bin/sh
export SSL_CERT_DIR=/etc/ssl/certs
--------------------
Scripts placed in /etc/profile.d are run at boot by root so in this way,
I could export the shell var SSL_CERT_DIR to all subsequent processes -
including LMS. This works; after rebooting, LMS and plugins began
working correctly again. PERL modules could now find where the
certificates are kept on Ubuntu: /etc/ssl/certs.
Why this became necessary I still do not understand and I don't know
what the normal mechanism is that PERL uses to find ca-certificates, but
this stopgap measure has taken care of my issue for the time being.
