[rt-users] Coredumps, traceback, etc : 4.2.6 and RT-Authen-ExternalAuth

[Jeff Blaine]

RHEL 6.5
RT 4.2.6
RT-Authen-ExternalAuth 0.21 with SSL + TLS on.

Using RHEL 6.5 packages, one fails the Net-SSLeay "strict" version
requirement required by RT-Authen-ExternalAuth. RHEL 6.5 comes with a
9th iteration of Net-SSLeay 1.35 (the package name is
perl-Net-SSLeay-1.35-9).

Using CPAN to install a more modern one, 1.65, results in httpd dumping
core at restart time.

*Disabling* all SSL and TLS for $ExternalSettings in RT_SiteConfig.pm
results in the following "missing host method" error after apparent success:

Any thoughts would very welcome at this point.
