Ramakrishna, It would be helpful to see the apache error log ... usually called 'error.log' in the ..\Apache\logs directory. Also, the Dr Watson log can also be useful but less so when I do not have the same build - with the same build I can walk it into the failure with the debugger. The Dr Watson log can be found in the %SystemRoot% .. mine is I:\WINDOWS (XP PRO) yours could be C:\WINNT - the file is called 'drwtsn32.log' This could have been caused by a buffer overrun ... like in a failed exploit ... previous versions of OpenSSL were vulnerable. I will look at the log if you send it. Maybe there will be clues. The new code is ok?
