[drakma-devel] Failure to load under SBCL on MS Windows 7 (64-bit)

[Edi Weitz]

I have no experience with SBCL on Windows, let alone on 64-bit
versions of Windows, but the obvious first question would be if you
have libssl32.dll installed and where.  (If not, I think there's a
link on the Drakma website which shows were to find the OpenSSL libs
for Windows.  I don't know what this'll entail for 64-bit, though.)

Let us know how it goes.

Quick check: Is anyone on this list using Drakma with SBCL/Win?

Edi.
