build_ssl.py attempts to catch the most common errors (such as not

being able to find OpenSSL sources, or not being able to find a Perl

that works with OpenSSL) and give a reasonable error message.

build_ssl.py/MSVC isn't clever enough to clean OpenSSL - you must do
|

this by hand.

Win9x note: If, near the start of the build process, you see
|
||||
something like
|
||||
|
||||
C:\Code\openssl-0.9.6g>set OPTS=no-asm

Out of environment space

then you're in trouble, and will probable also see these errors near

the end of the process:
|

NMAKE : fatal error U1073: don't know how to make
|
||||
'crypto\md5\asm\m5_win32.asm'

Stop.

Stop.

You need more environment space. Win9x only has room for 256 bytes
|
||||
by default, and especially after installing ActivePerl (which fiddles
|
||||
the PATH envar), you're likely to run out. KB Q230205
