[Bug 966058] Re: SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:unsupported protocol

Thu Mar 29 19:52:11 UTC 2012

ubuntu 12.04

I don't get this issue in wget, curl or openssl

But I do get this issue in python and GET

import requests
requests.post("https://browserid.org/verify", data={})
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/requests/api.py", line 84, in post
    return request('post', url, data=data, **kwargs)

    return s.request(method=method, url=url, **kwargs)

Title:
  SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:unsupported protocol

Status in “openssl” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When trying to access some sites over https, both python and perl in precise fall over.
  Here's what happens with libwww-perl's GET:
  $ GET "https://one.ubuntu.com/" | head -n1
  <!DOCTYPE html>
  $ GET "https://api.dailymotion.com/user/SFLTV/features?fields=url,thumbnail_small_url,title,description&limit=100&page=1"
  Can't connect to api.dailymotion.com:443

  LWP::Protocol::https::Socket: SSL connect attempt failed with unknown
  errorerror:14077102:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:unsupported
  protocol at /usr/share/perl5/LWP/Protocol/http.pm line 51.

  Python throws essentially the same error. These work in lucid, and
  were working in precise, until very recently.
