Oddly enough, the application that has not been working for weeks has suddenly started working. None of the files in our application's folder have changed. We're now reviewing configuration settings in our software and the operating system to determine if anything else has changed. Thanks for your feedback.

For instance, I have SpeedFan running from AutoStart on my old XP box which loads the OpenSSL DLLs found in System32 directory. My ICS app. with OpenSSL DLLs located in application's directory then loads the already loaded OpenSSL DLLs. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms682586.aspx "If a DLL with the same module name is already loaded in memory, the system checks only for redirection and a manifest before resolving to the loaded DLL, no matter which directory it is in.

Re: [twsocket] SSL Handshake failing
> Yes, the applications are using the same version of the DLLs. Are the DLLs in the same directory as the application? If not, Windows will go searching the environment path and may find old or corrupted SSL DLLs. I always like to log the SSL version and DLL file name when an application starts, to avoid surprises. //Pre-loads OpenSSL DLL's try SslContext.InitContext; Log.Lines.Add ('SSL Version: ' + OpenSslVersion + ', Dir: ' + GLIBEAY_DLL_FileName) ; except on E: Exception do Log.Lines.Add ('Failed to Initialise SSL - ' + E.Message); end; Angus -- To unsubscribe or change your settings for TWSocket mailing list please goto http://lists.elists.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twsocket Visit our website at http://www.overbyte.be
Re: [twsocket] SSL Handshake failing
Yes, the applications are using the same version of the DLLs. Very odd that two separate applications on the same machine attempting to connect to the same URL, and one receives a response like "this URL doesn't support SSL". Any suggestions for additional testing? Obviously the server does support SSL, because it works perfectly with the other application. We've also seen that both applications work as expected when used from other machines. It is just this one application on this one machine that fails. Are there any socket related tweaks in Windows that are application specific?

Also, did you make sure that all your applications link the same version of OpenSSL DLLs? -- Arno -- To unsubscribe or change your settings for TWSocket mailing list please goto http://lists.elists.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twsocket Visit our website at http://www.overbyte.be

The log you posted is typical for trying to establish a SSL connection to a server not supporting SSL and it does not send any data to the client but just closes the TCP/IP connection. -- Arno -- To unsubscribe or change your settings for TWSocket mailing list please goto http://lists.elists.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twsocket Visit our website at http://www.overbyte.be
