[openssl.org #3007] BUG: OpenSSL 1.0.1e VC-WIN64A build fails when configured with 'no-ec'

[Jan.Evangelista@seznam.cz via RT]

OpenSSL 1.0.1e build configured with 'no-ec VC-WIN64A' fails with the following error:

link /nologo /subsystem:console /opt:ref /debug /dll /out:out32dll\capi.dll @C:\Users\jan\AppData\Local\Temp\nm26E6.tmp

NMAKE : fatal error U1077: '"d:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\BIN\amd64\link.EXE"' : return code '0x460'
Stop.

The commands issued were:

perl Configure no-ec VC-WIN64A
ms\do_win64a
nmake -f ms\ntdll.mak

The same error appears with 'no-ec no-gost'.

Workaround :

1. Configure with 'no-ec no-gost'
2. Patch the generated makefile and test batch:

Proper fix would probably not to generate a DLL target when the list of object files is empty.

Used software:

* Windows 7
* VS 2010 command prompt (vcvarsall.bat amd64)
* Perl v5.16.2, Binary build 1602 [296513] provided by ActiveState http://www.ActiveState.com

Sorry we didn't get to this sooner. We're only taking security fixes for 1.0.1
now.
Please open a new ticket if this is still an issue with current releases.
