I'm running openssl 0.9.8 on all of my Solaris 9 and 10 systems with no problems, tied in with dovecot, openssh, sendmail, bunches of other code. Note that I've built openssl and most of these other codes with Sun's Studio 8 compiler, but I also had no problems using gcc 4.0.1 either.

What version of OpenSSL are you using? I had this problem and it turned out to be a problem with OpenSSL. I had originally installed OpenSSL 0.9.8 and had the same problem you are having. I had to go back to OpenSSL 0.9.7d and it worked fine with no other changes. There might be a version between 0.9.7d and 0.9.8 but I didn't check because I already had the other version on the system. There were some major changes in OpenSSL 0.9.8 and I didn't have time to sort them out so I went with an earlier version.

Hi all,
I'm just trying to build dovecot-1.0.alpha3 on a Solaris 9 machine with SSL support. No matter which options I call ./configure with - it always results in:
Install prefix ...................... : /usr/local File offsets ........................ : 64bit I/O loop method ..................... : poll File change notification method ..... : none Building with SSL support ........... : no <-- ! Building with IPv6 support .......... : yes Building with pop3 server ........... : yes Building with mail delivery agent .. : yes Building with user database modules . : static passdb passwd passwd-file checkpassword (modules) Building with password lookup modules : passwd passwd-file shadow pam checkpassword (modules)
Some more details: $ uname -a SunOS ns 5.9 Generic_117171-08 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-280R $ /usr/local/ssl/bin/openssl version OpenSSL 0.9.7e 25 Oct 2004
On another system, the build succeeds - including SSL support: $ uname -a SunOS excalibur 5.9 Generic_117171-08 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Blade-100 $ /usr/local/ssl/bin/openssl version OpenSSL 0.9.7d 17 Mar 2004
I have tried lots of hints Google found in the mailing list archives, but none of them succeeded.
I'm looking forward to getting any further hints. If you need some further information, I will post it.
Regards & thanks in advance, Christian
