Failed to download schedule page with get_iplayer v3.06

user-1990

Hi,
I cannot get iplayer (web PVR or terminal prompt) to refresh cache. I believe I have successfully erased and reinstalled - to ensure I have a correct version of latest.
Can you advise?
Some diagnostics below:

get_iplayer Output:

Having deleted the cache completley I have nothing in it and cannot refresh. I do normally use get_iplayer_web_pvr (in Firefox 56.0.2), but all the above data pasted direct from Terminal (Mac OS 10.12.6)

What have I missed?!

Many thanks

Probably the same as this issue:

/thread-1548.html

Take a look at the URL you are failing to fetch, it's http. That suggests you're not being redirected to the https version (which iPlayer now forces) so the problem might be the same as linked.

Thanks. I had read that prevoiusly but thought everything possible was up to date. I'm up against the limits of my technical knowledge here! how can I test whether, for example, I have "set up a local library for Perl modules". On the specific of the IO::Socket::SSL, I believe I'm on the latest? Any clues? I have read the install instructions - and thoguht I'd followed all steps clearly yesterday (after deleting and reinstalling all modules). It's possible I missed something, but can't diagnose what...or how to fix it.
Many thanks

The fact that you got matches from get_iplayer --since 24 "daily politics" shows that your cache had been successfully updated within the previous 24 hours. So, the place to start is with whatever you did to your system that could have broken get_iplayer. Only you would know. Failing that, post the output from:
Code:
perl -V
perl -MLWP::Protocol::https -e 'print "$LWP::Protocol::https::VERSION\n";'

And also
Code:
perl -MNet::SSLeay -e 'print "$Net::SSLeay::VERSION\n";'
