Hi, As I wrote to this list before, I have a problem with running a program built on Irix which does not occur on other platforms using exactly the same code. I hereby provide some more diagnostic information I found recently, in the hope that someone has a clue on what is happening and how to address this problem.
The problem seems to be with the client side of the SSL handshake routine (either called using SSL_do_handshake in client mode or by using SSL_connect). The server works fine also when compiled on irix. The irix program uses (home-compiled) OpenSSL version 0.9.6i and 0.9.7c. Independent of which platform the server is running, when the Irix client connects to it, the server (compiled with 0.9.6 libs) handshake reports: SSL_do_handshake returned 0 SSL_get_error error code: 5 error:00000005:lib(0):func(0):bad asn1 object header This error does not occur when the client is compiled on solaris or linux; in this case, the handshake succeeds, also for example when a solaris client interoperates with the irix server. After recompilation of the (server) program using 0.9.7c, the problem reported by the server was different, somehow: SSL_do_handshake returned 0 SSL_get_error error code: 1 error:00000001:lib(0):func(0):reason(1) The 0.9.7.c irix client interoperating with a server on solaris that was built using 0.9.6 libraries reported reason 5 again. So, the difference in error report seem to be server side library version based; the client side causes an error independent of the library version used, but it is named differently by different openssl versions. I am not sure what really happens internally in openssl, I find it hard to trace the error back in the code. Does anyone have an idea what might be handled differently in the Irix version of the libraries than the solaris / linux version with regard to the handshake protocol? Or maybe something different happens in the underlying socket implementation in Irix or something like that which might cause these problems? What sort of thing can cause the above problems? Is there anything I might be doing wrong in the application code that can cause this? Thanks for reading, Guido. ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
