The other thing that you may have missed is that the tarball 'openssl-fips-1.1.1.tar.gz' should be used ONLY to build the FIPS modules (which is the fipscansiter.o, an executable, a C source file and 2 signatures). You then need to use the tarball 'openssl-0.9.7m.tar.gz' (nothing before,nothing after) to build the FIPS enabled versions of the ssl and crypto libraries. You got a ways to still; just hang in there and you'll have it all figured out.
HTH -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Paul Levin Sent: Friday, October 19, 2007 2:39 PM To: openssl-users@openssl.org Subject: problems with building the FIPS OpenSSL I am trying to build FIPS OpenSSL 1.1.1 for Windows, as per the instructions in the UserGuide-1.1.1.pdf. For the most part it goes ok, but when I get to step 7, in section 4.3.2, there are several problems. 1.. there is no directory called /usr/local/ssl/lib in MSYS. 2.. in step 10 I can find most of the files, but fips_premain.c.sha1 is no where to be found The everything goes to h-ll when I try to build OpenSSL with the FIPS addon. 1.. I'm using the OpenSSL that is in the FIPS tar. The User Guide implies that I need to download some other version 2.. The user guide says to use a --with-fipslibdir argument to perl Configure. That gives an invalid parameter error. 3.. Following the instructions in the INSTALL_W32 file, I ran "perl Configure VC-WIN32 fips". Then "ms\do_masm". This gave several errors that the FIPS files could not be found. 4.. Looking at the perl script, I see it is looking in the top level directory of the tar tree (openssl-fips-1.1.1) for the FIPS generated files. The FIPS build did not put the files there. 1.. I moved the files there and I'm still getting an error because the fips_premain.c.sha1 file is not there. What needs to be done to build this?
