OpenVPN Support Forum

Hi,
i was trying to compile openvpn 2.3.2 with polarssl 1.3.1 library and make fails in this way:

gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../.. -I../../include -I../../src/compat -g -O2 -MT crypto_polarssl.o -MD -MP -MF .deps/crypto_polarssl.Tpo -c -o crypto_polarssl.o crypto_polarssl.c
crypto_polarssl.c: In function ‘cipher_ctx_reset’:
crypto_polarssl.c:469:3: error: too many arguments to function ‘cipher_reset’
return 0 == cipher_reset(ctx, iv_buf);
^
In file included from crypto_polarssl.h:33:0,
from crypto_backend.h:37,
from crypto_polarssl.c:44:
/usr/local/include/polarssl/cipher.h:510:5: note: declared here
int cipher_reset( cipher_context_t *ctx );
^
make[3]: *** [crypto_polarssl.o] Erreur 1

It seems that cipher_reset() method has been modified in polarssl 1.3 (2nd argument iv_buf has been removed).

Does someone already encountered this issue?
Is there a known temporary fix?

Regards

I can confirm the issue on my end as well. Can you please file an official bugreport at the tracker? (the same username to the forums works in the tracker too.)

I see several people have posted similar comments about 2.3.0 not working and having to roll back to 2.2.2. It looks like 2.3.0 is not stable and hasn't been fully regression-tested, or there is a compatibility break when connecting to an older server version that is still running 2.2.2.
