I'm also experiencing the same problem on solaris 2.6 through 9 as mentioned in thread make install fails on solaris sparc 8 for 0.9.7e http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg37703.html
This did not happen on 0.9.7d, which I built using the same command line During a make install it appears the Makefile does not make sense? from fips/sha1/Makefile install: @if test -n "$(EXHEADER)"; then \ for i in $(EXHEADER) ; \ do \ (cp $$i $(INSTALL_PREFIX)$(INSTALLTOP)/include/openssl/$$i; \ chmod 644 $(INSTALL_PREFIX)$(INSTALLTOP)/include/openssl/$$i ); \ done; \ fi If EXHEADER is null will this not expand to: if test -n ""; then \ for i in ; \ do (cp $i /usr/local/include/openssl/$i; \ chmod 644 /usr/local/include/openssl/$i ); \ done; \ fi >>>> for i in ; that is not valid shell, hence the error is reported: .../openssl-0.9.7e/fips/sha1# make install sh: syntax error at line 2: `;' unexpected *** Error code 2 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `install' I assume this is what is causing the problem. Has anyone managed to compile this 0.9.7e on a solaris box? I have 2.6, 7, 8 and 9 and I'm using Sunfreeware's GCC package Sun's make on all platforms Chris Pitchford <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
