Re: FIPS Module enabling without installing Openssl 3 on Windows

Its really hard to tell without some debugging output from your execution of your application, but initial guesses are:

1) You're misnaming your fips file.  Your fipsinstall command indicates you are outputting a file named fips.cnf, but your openssl.cnf file includes fipsmodule.cnf, so something is misaligned there
2) You may not be loading your openssl.cnf from the location you think.  Suggest running `openssl.exe version -a` to see what your default OPENSSLDIR value is, as that is where you will be loading your config files from, barring any setting of the OPENSSL_CONF and OPENSSL_CONF_INCLUDE environment variables

Hi Guys, 

Hope you are doing great,  I am writing this to inform you that I have been facing issues while loading the FIPS provider. I didn't install the Openssl 3.0.8 on the machine instead, compiled it on JENKINS Server

Commands to compile the OpenSSL 3.0.8 version on JENKINS Server:
@echo Configuring the compilation environment
perl Configure VC-WIN32 --prefix="%WORKSPACE%\Delivery\x86" enable-fips

@echo Building FIPS capable OpenSSL DLLs
nmake

@echo Running self test
nmake test

@echo Copying files to the delivery folder (prefix)
nmake install

These files were generated in the respective folders:
bin ----- libcrypto-3.dll, libcrypto-3.pdb, libssl-3.dll, libssl-3.pdb, openssl.exe
html ----- having all the API 
include ---- openssl ----  All header files 
lib --- engines-3 ---- capi.dll, loader-attic.dll, padlock.dll
     |----- ossl-modules ---fips.dll, legacy.dll, fips.pdb, legacy.pdb
     |------libcrypto.lib, libssl.lib

I created a console application, and added the Openssl compiled files in Project Properties:
1. Added the include/openssl folder in C/C++ -- General --- Additional Include Directories

2. Added libraries (lib) folder in Linker -- General -- Additional Library Directories

3. Write down the libraries name in Linker --- Input ---- Additional Dependencies

Then manually created a folder of OpenSSL in C:\Program Files (x86), and created further two folders:
config  --  have 2 files ----   fipsmodule.cnf, openssl.cnf
ossl-modules ---- have dll files as ------ fips.dll, fips.pdb, legacy.dll, legacy.pdb 

Then created the System Environment Variables and refer these path in it:

I created the fipsmodule.cnf file after running the openssl.exe on command prompt using this command:
openssl fipsinstall -module "path\to\fips.dll" -out "path\to\fips.cnf"   

I am also sharing my openssl.cnf file and fipsmodule.cnf file to check if there is any mistake or something else?

I am doing this stuff in Windows and Visual Studio.

Please kindly guide me how can I load the FIPS Provider in my Application without installing OPENSSL on my machine? And at which location or path I need to keep all these files (dll, .cnf)? 

Hope to hear from you soon.
