Hi All,

We have upgraded Openssl in our application to Openssl-fips-1.2 along with 
Openssl-0.9.8j, so that we can run the server (Apache webserver) in FIPS mode. 
After the changes, the server works fine in FIPS mode, on most of the systems, 
except for these two machines, where the server refuses to start when launched 
from services.msc. The error it gives is: "Error 1053, Failed to launch the 
application in a timely fashion" or sometimes: "Could not start the requested 
service. Error code sytem-specific errorcode - 1".

When I try to run the application in the debug environment, it gives the 
following error:

FIPS_R_UNSUPPORTED_PLATFORM "unsupported platform". (Indicating that the 
validity of the digest test is unknown for the current platform.)

Could this be the same error condition causing the server crash in release 
build. We have no way to find the cause in release build, because no log files 
are created by the time the server stops loading itself.

Note: The same application works fine, if I run it in NON-FIPS mode.

All the machines are 32 bits machines, Windows XP, RAM 1 or 2 GB. Can anyone 
let me know, why we are facing this problem and/or the workaround for this?

We are grateful for any help provided.

Thanks,
Uma
