LIBEAY32.DLL error poping up ing CCS 5.5.0.00077

This may be causing other issues in CCS but for now one thing at a time (heh) I get this error

A "quick" search yielded:


My "guess" is that it can't find the right version of libeay32.dll so "where" should this be etc? Suggestions? How do I know "what version" is going on.

I suspect the second one from the bottom is creating this error as I started having this error (memory is great) around that time (and I was REALLY busy).

  • Stephen,

    Your screenshots did not make it through, so could you please attach them again? 

    When do you get this error message - when CCS starts up or at some other time?

    I see a dll with this name in the directory \ccsv5\ccs_base\simulation_keystone2\env\ccs\drivers within the CCS installation. Do you see it there too? If not, I wonder if something corrupted the installation, in which case I would suggest uninstalling and reinstalling CCS. Make sure to completely delete your current installation directory if you wish to reinstall to the same location. Or you can choose to install it in a different folder.

    This error is seen at startup of CCS5.5

    This is the search for locations of said DLL

    Hopefully they will be visible

    Is their a preview option? That might help prevent the same "incident" happening (or at least help prevent it) over again. Just a thought.

    As for the DLL locality, is it possible that the location "elsewhere" is being looked at before the DLL can be loaded from the correct location? This seems to be a common issue in windows applications.


    OS version is Win 7 SP1 32bit.

  • Stephen,

    In my CCSv5.5 install I see the exact same thing as Aarti (and partially yours): the only occurrence of this library is at \ccsv5\ccs_base\simulation_keystone2\env\ccs\drivers.

    The other three occurrences you found inside the ccsv5 directory tree are related to SVN, where this DLL seems to have at least two versions (their sizes are different) and may be clashing. Perhaps you could try to uninstall the SVN plugin and see if the issue goes away?

    Just like you, I also have multiple occurrences of this library across my setup and have seen in the past DLLs being improperly referenced. However, given no similar issue was previously reported and the fact CCS itself does not use this DLL unless you are running a keystone 2 simulator (related to the location of the file), the large probability is the specific plugins may be the ones causing this trouble.

    Hope this helps,
    Rafael
  • It seems subversive eclipse plugin was the culprit (that client is a project off the Eclipse.org project list).
    I switched to subclipse (tigris.org) then removed subversive and it's directories JAR archives and whatever else I could find that was related too it, (need a good broom dustpan for windows sometimes).
    I am amazed this doesn't happen more often with DLL's under windows. Maybe it does and most times and the DLL doesn't throw a fit like the MS support DLL does here.
