Error uploading backup to S3

I'm running into an issue backing my VirtualMin up to S3. I get a cryptic error without much in the way of clues as to what might be going wrong:

Uploading archive to Amazon's S3 server .. HTTP/1.0 500 Perl execution failed Server: MiniServ/0.01 Date: Sat, 13 Dec 2008 01:12:23 GMT Content-type: text/html Connection: close Error - Perl execution failed

That's all I get. Any ideas? This is VirtualMin 3.63 Pro.

Hi Jack,

Yeah, that's not overly helpful, is it :-)

Does anything interesting show up in Webmin's error log in /var/webmin/miniserv.error? Perhaps it's dumping more useful output in there.

Ah yes, I did find an error. The Crypt::SSLeay library _is_ installed though, is there something else I should be enabling? I'm on a Joyent Accelerator if that helps (and Crypt::SSLeay was installed via pkg_get):

Hmm, so what happens if you log in over SSH and type this:

perl -MCrypt::SSLeay -e 'print $Crypt::SSLeay::VERSION'

Does it print out a version number?

Yep, I get 0.57.

Yeah, yours is even newer than mine :-)

Okay, I'm not quite sure what's going on there; before we get too far, I'm curious to hear Jamie's take on the matter. Go ahead and file a bug report if you could, and we'll work it out from there :-)

Thanks!
