Thanks for getting back again, Mike.

The compiled binary installer for openSSL did set this environment variable.

I'm really stumped here. I seem to have everything I need to get Php to
allow me to open https streams, but it is just not happening.

I downloaded and installed the latest Php4 for Windows from php.net and
it is working. If I call get_loaded_extensions, I see:

Array
(
[0] => standard
[1] => bcmath
[2] => calendar
[3] => ctype
[4] => com
[5] => ftp
[6] => mysql
[7] => odbc
[8] => overload
[9] => pcre
[10] => session
[11] => tokenizer
[12] => xml
[13] => wddx
[14] => zlib
[15] => apache
[16] => curl
[17] => gd
[18] => mhash
[19] => openssl
)

So the openssl extension is loaded.

The Windows environment variable OPENSSL_CONF is set to
C:\OpenSSL\bin\openssl.cnf (and that is where I have installed OpenSSL.
The two necessary dll files are in my Windows/System32 folder
(libeay32.dll and ssleay32.dll).

And lastly - running php -m (show compiled in modules) from a command
prompt displays:

[PHP Modules]
bcmath
calendar
com
ctype
curl
ftp
gd
mhash
mysql
odbc
openssl
overload
pcre
session
standard
tokenizer
wddx
xml
zlib

So the openssl module is compiled in my copy of Php.

Still, when I do Phpinfo, I get:
Registered PHP Streams - php, http, ftp, compress.zlib

No https and no ftps.

I have run Php as CGI and as an Apache module and it makes no difference.

I can not find anything else to check (open_basedir is not set), so
...... I am stumped.

I can not get https and ftps to be registered streams and it appears
that I have done everything needed to do so. ??
