[Interest] libeay32.dll - The Ordinal 4369 could not be located

[Scott Aron Bloom]

What is probably happening, is you are calling an ssl based connection, and since you are not shipping the openssl dlls that qt was built against, its picking up one someone else on the system.  Unfortunately, openssl is HORRIBLE for binary compatibility...

Ship the DLLs.. or don't try to connect to secure connections

Qt dynamically loads openssl (using QLibrary) when you try to use SSL for the first time, so just because your application isn't linking to it directly doesn't mean you don't depend on it. Qt does not have openssl 'compiled into it' unless you build your own copy of Qt using the -openssl-linked option.

There is no internal one.
