INSTALLATION ON THE UNIX PLATFORM
---------------------------------
- [See INSTALL.W32 for instructions for compiling OpenSSL on Windows systems,
- and INSTALL.VMS for installing on OpenVMS systems.]
+ [Installation on Windows, OpenVMS and MacOS (before MacOS X) is described
+ in INSTALL.W32, INSTALL.VMS and INSTALL.MacOS.]
To install OpenSSL, you will need:
This guesses at your operating system (and compiler, if necessary) and
configures OpenSSL based on this guess. Run ./config -t to see
- if it guessed correctly. If it did not get it correct or you want to
- use a different compiler then go to step 1b. Otherwise go to step 2.
+ if it guessed correctly. If you want to use a different compiler, you
+ are cross-compiling for another platform, or the ./config guess was
+ wrong for other reasons, go to step 1b. Otherwise go to step 2.
On some systems, you can include debugging information as follows:
If your system is not available, you will have to edit the Configure
program and add the correct configuration for your system. The
- generic configurations "cc" or "gcc" should usually work.
+ generic configurations "cc" or "gcc" should usually work on 32 bit
+ systems.
Configure creates the file Makefile.ssl from Makefile.org and
defines various macros in crypto/opensslconf.h (generated from
If "make" fails, please report the problem to <openssl-bugs@openssl.org>
(note that your message will be forwarded to a public mailing list).
- Include the output of "./config -t" and the OpenSSL version
- number in your message.
+ Include the output of "make report" in your message.
[If you encounter assembler error messages, try the "no-asm"
configuration option as an immediate fix.]
If a test fails, try removing any compiler optimization flags from
the CFLAGS line in Makefile.ssl and run "make clean; make". Please
send a bug report to <openssl-bugs@openssl.org>, including the
- output of "openssl version -a" and of the failed test.
+ output of "make report".

for certificate files.
+ man/man1 Manual pages for the 'openssl' command line tool
+ man/man3 Manual pages for the libraries (very incomplete)
misc Various scripts.

for private key files.
you can still use "no-threads" to suppress an annoying warning message
from the Configure script.)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-The orignal Unix build instructions from SSLeay follow.
-Note: some of this may be out of date and no longer applicable
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-# When bringing the SSLeay distribution back from the evil intel world
-# of Windows NT, do the following to make it nice again under unix :-)
-# You don't normally need to run this.
-sh util/fixNT.sh # This only works for NT now - eay - 21-Jun-1996
-
-# If you have perl, and it is not in /usr/local/bin, you can run
-perl util/perlpath.pl /new/path
-# and this will fix the paths in all the scripts. DO NOT put
-# /new/path/perl, just /new/path. The build
-# environment always run scripts as 'perl perlscript.pl' but some of the
-# 'applications' are easier to usr with the path fixed.
-
-# Edit crypto/cryptlib.h, tools/c_rehash, and Makefile.ssl
-# to set the install locations if you don't like
-# the default location of /usr/local/ssl
-# Do this by running
-perl util/ssldir.pl /new/ssl/home
-# if you have perl, or by hand if not.
-
-# If things have been stuffed up with the sym links, run
-make -f Makefile.ssl links
-# This will re-populate lib/include with symlinks and for each
-# directory, link Makefile to Makefile.ssl
-
-# Setup the machine dependent stuff for the top level makefile
-# and some select .h files
-# If you don't have perl, this will bomb, in which case just edit the
-# top level Makefile.ssl
-./Configure 'system type'
-
-# The 'Configure' command contains default configuration parameters
-# for lots of machines. Configure edits 5 lines in the top level Makefile
-# It modifies the following values in the following files
-Makefile.ssl CC CFLAG EX_LIBS BN_MULW
-crypto/des/des.h DES_LONG
-crypto/des/des_locl.h DES_PTR
-crypto/md2/md2.h MD2_INT
-crypto/rc4/rc4.h RC4_INT
-crypto/rc4/rc4_enc.c RC4_INDEX
-crypto/rc2/rc2.h RC2_INT
-crypto/bf/bf_locl.h BF_INT
-crypto/idea/idea.h IDEA_INT
-crypto/bn/bn.h BN_LLONG (and defines one of SIXTY_FOUR_BIT,
- SIXTY_FOUR_BIT_LONG, THIRTY_TWO_BIT,
- SIXTEEN_BIT or EIGHT_BIT)
-Please remember that all these files are actually copies of the file with
-a .org extention. So if you change crypto/des/des.h, the next time
-you run Configure, it will be runover by a 'configured' version of
-crypto/des/des.org. So to make the changer the default, change the .org
-files. The reason these files have to be edited is because most of
-these modifications change the size of fundamental data types.
-While in theory this stuff is optional, it often makes a big
-difference in performance and when using assember, it is importaint
-for the 'Bignum bits' match those required by the assember code.
-A warning for people using gcc with sparc cpu's. Gcc needs the -mv8
-flag to use the hardware multiply instruction which was not present in
-earlier versions of the sparc CPU. I define it by default. If you
-have an old sparc, and it crashes, try rebuilding with this flag
-removed. I am leaving this flag on by default because it makes
-things run 4 times faster :-)
-
-# clean out all the old stuff
-make clean
-
-# Do a make depend only if you have the makedepend command installed
-# This is not needed but it does make things nice when developing.
-make depend
-
-# make should build everything
-make
-
-# fix up the demo certificate hash directory if it has been stuffed up.
-make rehash
-
-# test everything
-make test
-
-# install the lot
-make install
-
-# It is worth noting that all the applications are built into the one
-# program, ssleay, which is then has links from the other programs
-# names to it.
-# The applicatons can be built by themselves, just don't define the
-# 'MONOLITH' flag. So to build the 'enc' program stand alone,
-gcc -O2 -Iinclude apps/enc.c apps/apps.c libcrypto.a
-
-# Other useful make options are
-make makefile.one
-# which generate a 'makefile.one' file which will build the complete
-# SSLeay distribution with temp. files in './tmp' and 'installable' files
-# in './out'
-
-# Have a look at running
-perl util/mk1mf.pl help
-# this can be used to generate a single makefile and is about the only
-# way to generate makefiles for windows.
-
-# There is actually a final way of building SSLeay.
-gcc -O2 -c -Icrypto -Iinclude crypto/crypto.c
-gcc -O2 -c -Issl -Iinclude ssl/ssl.c
-# and you now have the 2 libraries as single object files :-).
-# If you want to use the assember code for your particular platform
-# (DEC alpha/x86 are the main ones, the other assember is just the
-# output from gcc) you will need to link the assember with the above generated
-# object file and also do the above compile as
-gcc -O2 -DBN_ASM -c -Icrypto -Iinclude crypto/crypto.c
-
-This last option is probably the best way to go when porting to another
-platform or building shared libraries. It is not good for development so
-I don't normally use it.
-
-To build shared libararies under unix, have a look in shlib, basically
-you are on your own, but it is quite easy and all you have to do
-is compile 2 (or 3) files.
-
-For mult-threading, have a read of doc/threads.doc. Again it is quite
-easy and normally only requires some extra callbacks to be defined
-by the application.
-The examples for solaris and windows NT/95 are in the mt directory.

-IRIX 5.x will build as a 32 bit system with mips1 assember.
-IRIX 6.x will build as a 64 bit system with mips3 assember. It conforms
-to n32 standards. In theory you can compile the 64 bit assember under
-IRIX 5.x but you will have to have the correct system software installed.
