[openssl-dev] [openssl.org #4630] Fatal error U1077: 'ias' : return code '0x1' on Skylake processor

[Sebastian Smolorz via RT]

Hi,

I'm trying to set up OpenSSL on Windows 10 64-bit (i7 Skylake), having
followed the instructions so far, after installing Visual Studio I
attempted to nmake in the openssl directory using Visual c++ 2008 command
prompt to get the following error:

     "C:\Strawberry\perl\bin\perl.exe" "-I." -Mconfigdata "util\dofile.pl"
 "-omakefile" "crypto\include\internal\bn_conf.h.in" >
crypto\include\internal\bn_conf.h
            "C:\Strawberry\perl\bin\perl.exe" "-I." -Mconfigdata "util\
dofile.pl"  "-omakefile" "crypto\include\internal\dso_conf.h.in" >
crypto\include\internal\dso_conf.h
            "C:\Strawberry\perl\bin\perl.exe" "-I." -Mconfigdata "util\
dofile.pl"  "-omakefile" "include\openssl\opensslconf.h.in" >
include\openssl\opensslconf.h
            ias -d debug -ocrypto\aes\aes-ia64.obj "crypto\aes\aes-ia64.asm"
    'ias' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
    operable program or batch file.
    NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'ias' : return code '0x1'
    Stop.

This error is different if I try to compile the 32 bit version. That
results in an error referencing NASM which I tried to install with no luck. I
was working on the latest version and I've now tried older releases which
threw fatal error U1001: syntax error : illegal character '{' in macro. I
believe IAS is referring to the Itanium processor architecture but my
machine has a Skylake processor.

Thank you for taking the time to read my question.
