Hi, Summary of Changes:
According to the postgresql-17 requirements https://www.postgresql.org/docs/17/install-requirements.html the minimum required version of openssl is 1.0.2. In that version, the naming convention on windows is still ssleay32.[lib|dll] and libeay32.[lib|dll] instead of libssl.[lib|dll] and libcrypto.[lib|dll]. It changed in version 1.1.0 https://github.com/openssl/openssl/issues/10332#issuecomment-549027653 Thus there is a bug in meson.build as it only supports libssl.lib and libcrypto.lib, hence a simple patch that fixes the issue and supports both conventions. I also submitted a pull request on GitHub, which can be found here: https://github.com/postgres/postgres/pull/188 There are two simple changes in the meson.build file. Reason for Changes: Add support for the old naming libs convention on windows (ssleay32.lib and libeay32.lib). Testing: The patch has been tested against postgres-17 and openssl v1.0.2 in our environment on various platforms (lnx, win, ...)
