Are you testing on Windows ?

If so, make sure the openssl libraries are located somewhere in the PATH.
(just put them next to the binary).

If you are on Mac, Beware that the default openssl libraries on Mac are old
and that some servers simply refuse to set up the SSL connection with older
protocols.
