Hi all,

I downloaded XAMPP the other day for my Windows 7 (XAMPP 1.7.3). I want to enable OpenSSL and test it but I can't seem to find it anywhere? There are no dll's related to it and my php.ini does not contain ;extension=php_openssl.dll

Confused

According to phpinfo() its already enabled.. so how do i test it?

It is statically linked into the core module, you need not to specify any extension for PHP.

Simply run your tests (as if you had enabled php_openssl.dll).

I run them but i get errors like

Code: Select all

Warning: openssl_pkey_export() [function.openssl-pkey-export]: cannot get key from parameter 1 in C:\xampp\htdocs\test.php on line 16

Warning: openssl_pkey_get_details() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given in C:\xampp\htdocs\test.php on line 19


Warning: openssl_public_encrypt() [function.openssl-public-encrypt]: key parameter is not a valid public key in C:\xampp\htdocs\test.php on line 28

Warning: openssl_private_decrypt() [function.openssl-private-decrypt]: key parameter is not a valid private key in C:\xampp\htdocs\test.php on line 32


I suspect it can't find the conf file? Help

Edit.. it is pointing to the correct file..

OPENSSL_CONF C:/xampp/apache/bin/openssl.cnf

can anyone help me? i cant seem to get help.

php.ini does not have any ;extension=php_openssl.dll (there is also no php_openssl.dll anywhere)

openssl found in apache/bin

phpinfo() tells me it's enabled and is pointing to the conf correctly.

libeay32.dll also in apache/bin.

I've added the dll to my PATH and restarted my system, and XAMPP.

I've googled everywhere for help but old tutorials only seem to mention uncommenting the extension=php_openssl.dll bit.

Openssl have been a problem on window servers. I dont know how but one day, it started working for me but it rarely works now but I have no use for it at the moment other than making self-signed certificates.

Just to say that I also have this problem, several years after the original poster. I can't find help anywhere & will soon have to look for alternatives (urk! Microsoft)

Me too! Any answers?

I'm using Windows 7 64bit and I've been having a right headache with this issue.

After testing various methods I've found the best solution.

1. Click on the START button
2. Click on CONTROL PANEL
3. Click on SYSTEM AND SECURITY
4. Click on SYSTEM
5. Click on ADVANCED SYSTEM SETTINGS
6. Click on ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
7. Under "System Variables" click on "NEW"
8. Enter the "Variable name" OPENSSL_CONF
9. Enter the "Variable value". My is - C:\XAMPP\php\extras\openssl\openssl.cnf
10. Click "OK" and close all the windows and RESTART your computer.

The OPENSSL should be correctly working.

Hopefully XAMPP will make the installation script add this as a default!

EDIT: Now getting the error "string(31) "C:/xampp/apache/bin/openssl.cnf" error:0E06D06C:configuration file routines:NCONF_get_string:no value"

ARRRGGGHH!!!!
