Wamp2 and "The ordinal 942 could not be located in the dynamic link library LIBEAY.dll"

Question

I want to learn to use SSL with Wamp, and I am using the article Wamp2 HTTPS and SSL Setup Step-by-Step guide. When I type in the command openssl genrsa -des3 -out server.key 1024 in the command line, it shows me an error The ordinal 942 could not be located in the dynamic link library LIBEAY.dll.

How can I solve this problem ? Thank you!

Answer 1

I have downloaded the latest openSSL and copied openssl.exe, libeay32.dll,ssleay32.dll to this location C:\wamp\bin\apache\Apache2.2.17\bin

It is working without errors. Thanks guys

Another application on your computer is using a different version of OpenSSL, and it has installed older library files. Download OpenSSL, unzip it and run it from that directory.
