Please try to send the text of error reports, not pictures.

If you ask on the openssl-users list, someone else may have seen

the same issue, and may have useful advice to share.

NOTE!!!:  I've set the Reply-To: address to <openssl-users at openssl.org>.

If you just hit "Reply", your answer may go to the list, though you'd

need to join the list first to be able to post...

Does the error still happen when you disable "chroot" in BIND?

Perhaps BIND is doing late initialization of the PRNG after

entering the chroot jail, and maybe trying to use "/dev/urandom",

which not be in the jail?  That's a wild guess.  You'd need to

trace system calls to see what it is actually doing...
