Delphi2007 Indy SSL problems

[v***@nospam.freelancersrealm.net]

I've updated from Delphi 7 to Delphi 2007 and I'm having serious problems
with the SSL connections.

I've made a component that use the IdHTTP component to connecto to a
server, it worked fine with
Delphi 7, but in 2007 when I recompile it I get different errors depending
on SSL libraries etc.
that I use.

Where can I download WORKING OpenSSL DLLs for Indy 10? None that I've
found work, I get either
EIdOSSLCouldNotLoadSSLLibrary or EIdReadTimeout depending on the DLL
versions.

You are probably using the wrong OpenSSL DLLs for your version of Indy.

Different versions of Indy use different DLL versions.

The current Indy version uses the official DLLs from OpenSSL's website.
Indy stopped using custom DLLs awhile ago.

My Indy version is 10.1.15, that's what came with the Delphi 2007. I can=

Link?

I can't find any binaries there, only some C source code a link to this =

others.

In the Delphi 2007 documentation was a link to this site =

work with my program which I compiled with Delphi7
using Indy9, but not when I recompile it with Delphi 2007 and Indy10.

You need to upgrade your version of Indy to 10.2.3. This version works with
the latest SSL libraries.

Indy 10.2.3 is available from here http://indy.fulgan.com/ZIP/

The latest SSL libraries are available from here
http://www.openssl.org/source/

Why ship a half-assed partially working product in the first place
anyway???

You mean Windows?

Make sure you completely uninstall and remove your current version of Indy
first.

Try using the custom DLLs that are linked to on Indy's website:

Because export laws do not allow them to be.

The official OpenSSL website is http://www.openssl.org. You need Indy
10.2.3 to use it.

If you look at that page again more closely, you will see the link for
downloading the installer for the precompiled binaries. It is in right in
the middle of the page.

That and I've already tried those binaries and they won't work
any better than others.

The Indy version you are using is not set up to use the official DLLs, hense
why I directed you to try the custom DLLs that Indy provides separately.

That is an old link. The current English page is now:

http://www.intelicom.si/www.nsf/home?OpenNavigator&lang=en

The actual Indy OpenSSL DLL download link is:
