title: Unable to get page via HTTPS with LWP::Simple in Perl
body: <p>I try to download a page from an HTTPS URL with Perl:</p>
  
  <pre><code>use LWP::Simple;
  
  my $url = 'https://www.ferc.gov/xml/whats-new.xml';
  my $content = get $url or die "Unable to get $url\n";
  print $content;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>There seems to be a problem. Just can't figure out the error. I can't get the page. Is the get request improperly coded?  Do I need to use a user agent? </p>
