Re^2: Net::SSLeay and Strawberry Perl

[luminosity]

I tried to do what you said, but the install still fails.

C:OpenSSL\lib\ now contains libeay32.a, libeay32.def, ssleay32.a, and ssleay32.def. I try to run the install command and get the following:

Cannot determine perl version info from lib/Net/SSLeay.pm
Cannot determine license info from lib/Net/SSLeay.pm
*** Found OpenSSL-0.9.8g installed in C:\OpenSSL
*** Be sure to use the same compiler and options to compile your OpenS
+SL, perl,
    and Net::SSLeay. Mixing and matching compilers is not supported.
Do you want to run external tests?
These tests *will* *fail* if you do not have network connectivity. [y]

It then spews a bunch of errors again, and exits with the following:

dmake.EXE:  Error code 129, while making 'SSLeay.o'
  FLORA/Net-SSLeay-1.32.tar.gz
  C:\strawberry\c\bin\dmake.EXE -- NOT OK

Is there some environment variable I need to modify or some other file I need to copy?

I appreciate the help.

I notice your gcc -c  -IC:\... line doesn't have the -IC:\OpenSSL\include needed to find OpenSSL's header files. Could that be the problem? Try running:

  C:\> SET INCLUDE_PATH=C:\OpenSSL\Include
  C:\> cpan install Net::SSLeay

and see if that changes the error message.

I just wanted to confirm that this does indeed work. It allowed me to install Net::SSLeay (1.35) successfully using Shining Light openSSL v0.9.8j and strawberry perl 5.10.0.4 (Windows XP SP3) (the OP never responded re. his/her success)
