Help with V 8.1 (VIP)

[dew1960]

OK, not sure what I did wrong here.
I downloaded and extracted the _server folder and also the release folder.
I downloaded and extracted all of the DBC, maps, mmaps, and vmaps and put them in the release folder.
I started up mysql.bat and that works fine.
I go to the release folder and click to run the authserver.exe and I got a missing dll error (ssleay32.dll).
I copied the dll file over from my V6 to the release folder and tried to run the authserver exe again. Now I get a message: The ordinal 4684 could not be located in the dynamic link library c:\(path to server folder)\SSLEAY32.dll.
The release download did not have the dll file in it so maybe the one from V6 is not compatible?
Do I maybe need to download it from V7?

Thanks for any help/support. I appreciate it.

Do you have openssl installed ?

Try this : http://slproweb.com/download/Win32OpenSSL-1_0_2o.exe

As Artamedes said, it should be related to OpenSSL. Install the OpenSSL and try again, and perhaps even swap the ssleay32.dll into your server folder if necessary.

I installed the "required software" earlier. I just reinstalled openssl from Artamedes link, looks like a newer version, going to restart PC to see if that helps and try again. Frustrated, LOL! I must be trying too hard

-Update: After reinstalling the OpenSSL with the newer version (the required software.rar file had an older version in it) and restarting the PC, I am good to go.

Thanks for the support.
