Synapse https 500

Hi. I installed synapse (as lpk), put ssleay32.dll and libeay32.dll
(from here https://indy.fulgan.com/SSL/) in the project folder, and
added httpsend and openssl to the uses clause, yet my simple test
(from wiki) always fails with error 500 when using a https url (http
works just fine).

Now, I am new to http requests, so I don't know if that is related to
SSL or my request.

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 =
document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x =
document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i function
DownloadHTTP(URL, TargetFile: string): Boolean;var  HTTPGetResult:
Boolean;  HTTPSender: THTTPSend;begin  Result := False;  HTTPSender :=
THTTPSend.Create;  try    HTTPGetResult :=
HTTPSender.HTTPMethod('GET', URL);   
showMessage(inttostr(HTTPSender.ResultCode));    if
(HTTPSender.ResultCode >= 100) and (HTTPSender.ResultCode<=299) then
begin      HTTPSender.Document.SaveToFile(TargetFile);      Result :=
True;    end;  finally    HTTPSender.Free;  end;end; procedure
TForm2.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);begin  DownloadHTTP('https://www.
phoronix.com/phxcms7-css/phoronix.png','E:\phoronix.png');end;  
What am I missing? (Laz 2.0.6, fpc 3.0.4)

I get the same error 500.

I think we don't need to add openssl unit from FPC sources, since
synapse has it's own OpenSSL units in the folder. ssl_openssl.pas, but
is not accessible from the package (at least the installed with OPM).

Any ideas on how to fix?

First thing I always do when installing the synapse package is add
ssl_openssl to it. Somehow it's left out. So just open the synapse
package, add ssl_openssl (in the same directory) and compile and save.

After that you can add ssl_openssl to your own unit in the uses and it
will be found.

Thankyou, it works now
