Disclaimer: I don't have the slightest idea about DLLs (Windows).
You are passing data to the d2i_X509() function. d2i_X509() returns NULL.
This at least means, that d2i_X509() received some useful point, so that
it could return "failure". (Otherwise you might have faced a segmentation
fault.)
Did you check out the error stack?
Best regards,
