Try just touching those directories. Hopefully that should fix your problem. The problem i guess here is that, your make is running some test cases to generate some kind of certificates and its failing. Regards, Kiran

I've successfully run './config no-shared' and 'make', but 'make test' throws up the following: ----- You are about to be asked to enter information that will be incorporated into your certificate request. What you are about to enter is what is called a Distinguished Name or a DN. There are quite a few fields but you can leave some blank For some fields there will be a default value, If you enter '.', the field will be left blank. ----- Country Name (2 letter code) [AU]:AU Organization Name (eg, company) []:Dodgy Brothers Common Name (eg, YOUR name) []:Dodgy CA Using configuration from CAss.cnf Loading 'screen' into random state -./demoCA/newcerts: Invalid argument done I am unable to access the ./demoCA/newcerts directory make[1]: *** [test_ca] Error 1 The ./demoCA/newcerts directory exists (but is empty). On Windows XP, the error does not occur and 'make test' runs to its conclusion - so it looks like an issue that's specific to Vista .... unless there's something crucial I've got installed on the XP box, that's missing on the Vista box. Any advice on how to proceed with this ?
