 Hi,

When I am installing BuildForge V 8.0.0.3 version then fall into error at creating the OpenSSL keys. Here is the error message that I am receiving.

This error was reported several times in the past, such as this one.
https://jazz.net/forum/questions/119855/unable-to-upgrade-build-forge-to-80-from-7134-1-0010

Based on one of the reported cases, the error is related to the bundled Apache HTTP Server (the path X:/PREQ-Windows-ConsoleUpdate appears to be a default value in the httpd.conf file). Check the file BuildForge\Apache\logs\error_log and see if it can lead you somewhere. Otherwise, you should contact Support.
