We are experiencing the following error intermittently when we create
SSL connections via PHP + cURL:
error:140A90F1:SSL routines:SSL_CTX_new:unable to load ssl2 md5 routines
We're running Arch Linux, with Apache 2.2.10 and the latest Pacman
modules for PHP (5.2.7-2), cURL (7.19.2), and OpenSSL (0.9.8j).
These errors occur very regularly on one of our servers, but only once
about every 30 minutes on our much faster (and busier) server which runs
Red Hat Enterprise 5.
It looks like there's some sort of random problem where the
EVP_get_digestbyname call fails.
I think Apache and Postfix (for smtps connections) would also be using
libssl on these servers, but my understanding is that this shouldn't be
a problem with current versions of the applications.
Has anyone else experienced this sort of behavior? Or are we doing
something wrong?
Thanks,
Dave
