Hi, The upstreams package has not been updated since 2009. Is it reasonable to still expect it to work, or even make it work, with modern versions of Perl? ping! Created attachment 191500 [details] update to 1.05_01 using diff (since file is not easily fetchable) Hi, According to http://search.cpan.org/~aufflick/HTTP-Daemon-SSL/SSL.pm there is a later version 1.05_01 It is also very old, from 2009, but you could try it. For some reason it is not "properly" released in CPAN. Try it and see if the patch helps. Otherwise I suggest deprecating the port. Are there working alternatives? Palle Close here with feedback timeout! Please, reopen with there are still problems. |
The latest pkg updates perl to 5.24, and the p5-HTTP-Daemon-SSL package is now broken. Everything would work with perl 5.20 (previous pkg version). The example script provided in the perl module documentation (see below) crashes with the following error message: > Bad arg length for Socket::inet_ntoa, length is 16, should be 4 at > /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/HTTP/Daemon.pm line 51. Previously, the very same error would happen with Perl5 IPv6 socket modules installed, and a possible workaround was manually uninstalling the following packages: p5-IO-Socket-INET6, p5-Socket, p5-Socket6, p5-IO-Socket-IP. Script example: use HTTP::Daemon::SSL; use HTTP::Status; # Make sure you have a certs/ directory with "server-cert.pem" # and "server-key.pem" in it before running this! my $d = HTTP::Daemon::SSL->new || die; print "Please contact me at: <URL:", $d->url, ">\n"; while (my $c = $d->accept) { while (my $r = $c->get_request) { if ($r->method eq 'GET' and $r->url->path eq "/dir") { # remember, this is *not* recommened practice :-) $c->send_file_response("f.html"); } else { $c->send_error(RC_FORBIDDEN); } } $c->close; undef($c); }
