Hello, community, I’m having trouble compiling nginx against OpenSSL 1.0.1. When I compile OpenSSL manually, I have no problems, everything is fine, but when trying to compile nginx with the --with-openssl option the compilation fails with the following message: … make[4]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/openssl-1.0.1/crypto/cmac' if [-n ""]; then \ (cd ..; make libcrypto.so.1.0.0); \ fi make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/openssl-1.0.1/crypto’ make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/openssl-1.0.1’ make[1]: \*\*\* [/usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/openssl-1.0.1/.openssl/include/openssl/ssl.h] Error 2 When I try to do a “make all” from openssl-1.0.1/crypto without cleaning the source tree, it fails with: … cc -I. -I… -I…/include -g -c -o mem\_clr.o mem\_clr.c ar r …/libcrypto.a cryptlib.o mem.o mem\_dbg.o cversion.o ex\_data.o cpt\_err.o ebcdic.o uid.o o\_time.o o\_str.o o\_dir.o o\_fips.o o\_init.o fips\_ers.o mem\_clr.o [-z “”] || ar r …/libcrypto.a fipscanister.o …/libcrypto.a || echo Never mind. /bin/sh: …/libcrypto.a: Permission denied Never mind. make: \*\*\* [subdirs] Error 1 Does anyone have an idea how to properly address this?

Vanilla one builds just fine here under FreeBSD as well as CentOS 6.2. If it indeed doesn’t work for you with vanilla OpenSSL, please try to remove and re-extract sources from openssl-1.0.1.tar.gz tarball to make sure there are no accedental changes. If it still fails to build with nginx, please provide full transcript of the nginx ./configure and build till failure, as well as some more details information about your OS. You may also try doing relevant build commands in openssl build directory yourself, in particular make sure the following works ok in the directory with openssl sources: ./config no-shared no-threads && make If it fails, there is probably some issue completely unrelated to nginx. > /bin/sh: ../libcrypto.a: Permission denied > Never mind. > make: \*\*\* [subdirs] Error 1 This is expected to fail, you have to run just “make” (or “make top”, which is the same). The “all” target requires variables set by top-level makefile. Maxim D. ---

Hello, Maxim, I’m compiling with vanilla nginx 1.1.16 with vanilla OpenSSL sources on CentOS 5 i686. When I compile OpenSSL manually, it compiles (and works) just fine. > Thanks for the “make all” clarification.

The following fails for me as well: ./config no-shared no-threads make -j2 You may want to report this problem to OpenSSL folks. Meanwile, workaround is obvious - don’t use “make -j2” till this is fixed in OpenSSL. Maxim D. ---

Oh, boy, was this stupid. Thank you very much, I’ve actually though about this, but said “naah, probably won’t help”. I will report it to the OpenSSL guys.
