Install openssl-0.9.8 for SAP HANA

SAP HANA has a special love for openssl-0.9.8, so to install SAP HANA, you must first get openssl-0.9.8 dynamic library ready:

(1) Download openssl-0.9.8 source code from here, and uncompress it.

(2) To build dynamic library, you should add shared option when configuring:

./config shared
make
make install_sw

(3) Because the default installation directory is /usr/local/ssl, to let SAP HANA find the openssl library, you should add/usr/local/ssl/lib into /etc/ld.so.conf file:

# cat /etc/ld.so.conf
/usr/local/ssl/lib
/usr/local/lib64
/usr/local/lib
include /etc/ld.so.conf.d/*.conf
# /lib64, /lib, /usr/lib64 and /usr/lib gets added
# automatically by ldconfig after parsing this file.
# So, they do not need to be listed.

Then execute ldconfig command:

# ldconfig

It is OK for installing SAP HANA now.
