Public bug reported: When I try to start stunnel4 with compression=zlib, it fails with "Failed to initialize compression method":
# service stunnel4 start Starting SSL tunnels: Clients allowed=500 stunnel 4.53 on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu platform Compiled with OpenSSL 1.0.1e 11 Feb 2013 Running with OpenSSL 1.0.1f 6 Jan 2014 Update OpenSSL shared libraries or rebuild stunnel Threading:PTHREAD SSL:+ENGINE+OCSP Auth:LIBWRAP Sockets:POLL+IPv6 Reading configuration from file /etc/stunnel/5200.conf Failed to initialize compression method str_stats: 12 block(s), 255 data byte(s), 696 control byte(s) [Failed: /etc/stunnel/5200.conf] You should check that you have specified the pid= in you configuration file The same thing happens with compression = deflate. If I use no compression, stunnel4 starts normally.
