You need to compile the FIPS module and then a version of OpenSSL that uses that module. See https://www.openssl.org/docs/fips/UserGuide.pdf for links to appropriate documentation, depending on which version of the FIPS module you need to use (probably the latest one if you don't know you need the 1.0 module).
Finally, after you've done that, you need to make sure your application is linking the OpenSSL library(ies) that you just compiled for FIPS mode, and not whatever was distributed with the OS. If you don't really need FIPS mode (or don't know why you need FIPS mode), though, don't call FIPS_mode_set(). :) TOM ------ Original Message ------ From: "Kay Shamsa" <kay.sha...@jci.com> To: "openssl-users@openssl.org" <openssl-users@openssl.org> Sent: 7/7/2014 8:30:16 PM Subject: undefined reference to "FIPS_mode_set'
Hi; I am using encryption to broadcast messages in Linux environment. When using FIPS_mode_set(1) I get the error message of undefined reference to "FIPS_mode_set'. How can I fix this error. Thanks Kay
