Unable to run perl script to access Salesforce in server

Hi,
 
   I wrote a very simple perl script to access some information from Salesforce. The script works well in my desktop but it doesn't work in the server. The server platform is Windows 2000 Terminal. Below is the error message, anyone can give me a hint??
 
500 Can't locate object method "new" via package "LWP::Protocol::https::Socket"
(perhaps you forgot to load "LWP::Protocol::https::Socket"?) at C:/Perl/site/lib
/Salesforce.pm line 52
 
thanks,
-Florence

Hi fhui,
  you will need to install a perl SSL package, I use ssleay.  You can find this by searching CPAN.

Hi Ron ,

I am newbie to salesforce, We are trying to connect to salesforce from PERL , we did the coding but we are getting the following error when executing the code

"500 Server closed connection without sending any data back at //pkgs/linux/intel/perl/5.8.8.rhas3.x86/lib/site_perl/5.8.8/WWW/Salesforce.pm line 469"

There is no issue with the user id and password we used , we are able to login to the portal and we are able to ping the site from the unix box.If you have already connected to the portal could you tell me the steps you followed to connect .

Do we need to  use the wsdl file for PERL also , if yes where should i keep the file

Thanks,

Prasanna
