[SOLVED] problems with Crypt::SSLeay and using HTTPS request?

problems with Crypt::SSLeay and using HTTPS request?

I'm trying to connect to a website via HTTPS, by sending a WWW::Mechanize get request and whenever I try and run my script I get this error:

This Application has faile to start because libeay32_.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem

And inside the command prompt I get:

Error GETing http...: can't load 'C:/strawberry/perl/vendor/lib/auto/Crypt/SSLeay/SSLeay.dll for module Crypt::SSLeay: load_file: The specified module could not be found (Crypt::SSLeay or IO::Socket::SSL no installed) at ...

I don't understand the problem because I'm very new to programming with Perl. Crypt::SSLeay is installed, the .dll is in the proper location and IO::Socket::SSL is also installed, or whenever I try to install it via cpan i get the libeay error again. The libeay32_.dll is located in the C:\straberry\c\bin. I don't have full access right to the computer because I am doing this from work. If someone could explain to me the reason for the problem it would be appreciated.

Solution

I make an answer out of my comments so you can check this question as answered:

Add "C:\strawberry\c\bin" to the PATH-environment variable
Close the explorer- and/or commandline-windows since running processes aren't notified if the environment changes and thus keep the old environment active (okay, in the command line you could apply the update manually by set PATH=...new path...).
