#28 check_http --ssl error

[Scott Stephenson]

It seems whenever I run check_http with the --ssl
option, I receive 'ERROR: Cannot retrieve server
certificate'. Are there any dependencies associated
with --ssl?

I typically need to use it in conjunction with -f follow.

Example: check_http -I <IP> -f follow --ssl

I had the same problem, it was working with some sites and
not others, and had to change the method it was trying to
use. The code was.

meth = SSLv2_client_method ();

Changed to

meth = SSLv3_client_method ();

It started working and all sites, at least the ones I am
testing, are working now.
