When I try to install Net::SSL I get the following output. I don't understad it at all. Can anyone point me in the right direction, without getting to techy?

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>cpan

I had the same problem and, although I had the openSSL package installed, the development headers where not. I had to install the package libssl-dev. I used the Ubuntu Software Center to download and install the package. Alternately, you could use sudo apt-get install libssl-dev from the terminal command line.

That fixed my problem but is no real help to you working with windows. openSSL has a link to a binary for windows at: OpenSSL for Windows

The following lines suggest that you probably have not installed the OpenSSL library/headers or it is in a location not known to perl. Install it with the package manager of your operating system, or compile and install it.

>SSLeay.xs:35:25: openssl/ssl.h: No such file or directory
>SSLeay.xs:36:28: openssl/crypto.h: No such file or directory
>SSLeay.xs:37:25: openssl/err.h: No such file or directory
>SSLeay.xs:38:26: openssl/rand.h: No such file or directory
>SSLeay.xs:39:28: openssl/pkcs12.h: No such file or directory

After installing the library/headers, cpan should be able to make and install Net::SSL.

Generally CPAN takes care of this for you by installing all the dependent modules. The problem you are facing is with this warning

WARNING: BUILD_REQUIRES is not a known parameter.

Now since CPAN is unable to read this parameter it is unable to get all the dependent modules for you and hence is unable to install.

The Problem may be with the perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker module with comes with cpan utility.

You may want to install the latest version of cpan and try. Or as previously mentioned You may want to install all the modules after downloading them individually and then installing them manually.

First, I have got the problem like this:

mod_qos.c:83:26: error: openssl/rand.h: No such file or directory
mod_qos.c:84:25: error: openssl/evp.h:  No such file or directory

Then I used the following:

apxs -I/usr/local/openssl/include/openssl -i -c mod_qos.c -lcrypto -lpcre

and it succeeded! Why?
