With RHEL/CentOS 5 php I get an SSL Error RHEL/CentOS 5 php is at 5.1.6 with security fixes backported. <?php $handle = fopen("https://maps.google.com", "r"); $contents = stream_get_contents($handle); fclose($handle); ?> will result in something like Warning: stream_get_contents(): SSL: fatal protocol error in bla.php on line 3 Some https pages do not raise this error, e.g. https://www.redhat.com is fine What is wrong? How to debug? How to resolve? How to mitigate? Thanks -- Markus Falb
