Hi
I am facing issues in running my application on two different Linux
distributions having different OpenSSL versions.
The application “foo” is built on SUSE 9 and is intended to be executed on RHEL
4, 5, SUSE 9 and 10. The application”foo” links implicit dynamic with OpenSSL
libraries on the SUSE 9, OpenSSL version here is 0.9.7d. When I try to run the
application on RHEL 5 where in the OpenSSL version is 0.9.8b. I am getting
following error.

Can somebody please let me know how to address this OpenSSL version
in-compatibility problem? Basically, I request to know whether OpenSSL does not
support backward compatibility or backward compatibility is broken?
Summarizing:.
Application “foo” build on SUSE 9 implicit dynamic link to OpenSSL-0.9.7d.
“foo” runs without any problem on SUSE 9 which has OpenSSL version 0.9.7d
Try running the same “foo” on RHEL 5 – OpenSSL version on RHEL 5 is 0.9.8b.
“foo” fails to come up with above mentioned errors on RHEL 5. It seems that
application “foo” fails to work with higher version of OpenSSL
Request for suggestions.
Thank you,
Regards,
Shridhar GR
